Just bought this today, it’s 96in wide, 20ft long with a 3ft dove. The trailer was built for hauling tricycle tractors, which works fantastic for me.

It has brakes on one axle, and has a electric trailer jack with the battery on the trailer.

But my question is, how hard are those ramp helper springs are to install? I think I would be able to add them to this trailer without much work, the double ramp is kinda heavy.

BTW I am selling the tandem 16ft with rails, I have wanted a deck over for a long time, I feel 20ft is what I need more. Also no idea what it’s rated to carry. I will have to measure the axles, they are mobile home axles.
