40' Gooseneck trailer winch mount. First use pics too.

Well our Allis Chalmer 8010 broke down a couple miles from home, and being that the engine has to be running to be in nuetral and be able to steer, we decided to use our Big Tex 40' tandem dual trailer.
But we gotta be able to get that tractor on the trailer.

Putting a reciver hitch on 1 corner, and a d ring on the other.
Gotta go thru the snatch block, cause the tractor weighs 13k, and it's only a 10k winch.

You'll see.

Looks like the plan came together just fine. Nice work.:thumbsup:

I would like to make one suggestion. When you're using the winch put a blanket or a coat or something like that in the winch cable. If the cable breaks under load you'll be glad you did.

Nice welds.

How did you turn the trailer over to make that weld?
