What length was that trailer before you added 32" ? That is sweet! I wish I could put my zero turn and tractor on my trailer. Did you add the length of did you have a company do it? If you did it, have you started a thread in it? I'm curious to know more.

The total length of the flat bed was 25' plus 2' dove tail.
I did all of the design, cut out , and weld up work myself. I had 2 of my neighbors help with the installation. Then I painted the new part and installed the floor.
It has worked very well for me.

I have had my 3500 Cummins for about 15 months now. My wife and I are very pleased with the truck. We have had no issues to date. This is our first diesel and we really appreciate the performance when pulling a trailer in the southern mountains.

This is my second season pulling the fifth wheel. Very impressed with the Cummins, not only the power but also the overall fuel mileage. Even though it is an over-kill, had to show off the Kubota and RAM 3500 together.

Eric, we seem to be of simular age, but you sure seem to held onto your youthful speed at chaining down equipment better than I have... even Data (from Star Trek TNG) would be proud of your quickness!

I was motivated to fix my own driveway before my family arrived for Labor day. =)

That's a good looking set up you have and it's hard to beat the duramax/Allison combo

07 Ram with the 6.7L deleted, 6spd auto.

Need to upgrade the trailer soon but it's served me well, started life as an open center car trailer.

The dump trailer still needs some more work to be where I want it.1476192468559.jpg1476192558819.jpg1476192805818.jpg

And if anyone can flip my pictures over I'd appreciate it.
