Yardman1,
What is the GVW of your trailer? How much weight are you putting on it? Thanks

Re: I\'ve Been Unfaithful

the Trailer is rated 14,000 lb the M4900 is about 4000 lb so i put about 7000 lb on it but some times a lot more it pulls very good but you need a full size truck to pull it i have had the trailer for 10 years and have pulled the kubota 5 years I hope this helps

Re: I\'ve Been Unfaithful

Yardman1,

Thanks for the info. If I move up to an M6800 or M9000 I will probably go back to a 14,000 gvw gooseneck to be safe. I have recently seen a gooseneck with a tilt bed deck (see picture attached) and a gooseneck with a hydraulic beavertail that once you drive up on the tail it can raise the tractor up and become flat with the rest of the deck. What will they think of next?

Nice picture and i do like it but does it come with Dual Wheels for it would be even safer when you have a flat. if it does have Duals let us know.

The one I saw didn't have duals. You are right about the advantage of duals if you get a flat tire. Before I consider buying a new trailer I'll wait until next Spring when I start poking around for another tractor to put on it. /forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif
