Would a 12' trailer haul a Bobcat CT2035/Kioti CK3510 with loader?

I am selling the 12' steel. Looking at 2
Buyin an aluminum trailer. The dealer has the 16+2.5 aluminum car hauler and a 16, landscape for the same price. Both are aluminum. Nearly the same trailer. Neither are open center. Both have a 16'x80" solid wood deck. They weigh 1550lbs, both have brakes dual 3500lb axles, etc. I think the manufacturer probably starts them off on the same assembly line.

Did you end up deciding? Usually a "landscape" trailer has a ~12" or so high side rail. Sometimes its nice, other times its in the way. But it cannot be removed or cut off because it acts as a truss for the side of the trailer. Whereas a car or equipment trailer doesnt have that. The frame is heavier to not need a trussed side....and those rails can get in the way of opening a car door if you ever haul a car.

For your tractor.....assemble it in its longest configuration. Loader, tractor + longest attachment. Then measure it.

Quick question for you alls....my owner's manual suggests backing onto trailers.

My 24.5- horser has beet juice in the rears, a fel, and maybe soon, a small skidding winch out back. Which way is best in such a setup,? Thanks ahead.

Its all about load balance.

But alot of exhausts for small tractors point forward. And If the tractor has a turbo....there is some concern of spooling the turbo at highway speed and with tractor not running it is getting no oil. So perhaps thats why your manual suggests that?

Gonna go with car hauler without a dovetail. It has slots for posts so u can make sides if I ever need. Just stuck selling this little trailer first.
