Thanks for sharing the great pictures and info on the trailer Paul. Also was wondering if the king pin and plate gets covered in dirt when in the flat position?

OK. Thanks! Steco is still around the states making refuse, chip, demo, etc trailers.

I can't remember the brand of trailer but I saw a folding neck trailer and the operator had some 2" boards on the ground for the fifth wheel plate and the pin was removable.

It doesn't cost anything to pay attention.

I would say she looks allmighty :twothumbsup:

And that trailer is too interesting setup.

Once I checked for lowboys overhere and found out they worth a hell regardless the age.

And mate... a grease plate sounds pear shaped. We call it "sattle" here :tease:

Tim I just lift pin out once it clears the grease plate or fifth wheel I think you blokes call it

Paul

Thanks Paul was wondering about the king pin and what you can a turn table we call a fifth wheel. Do you have ramps for the back of the trailer?

no ramp I just use the front end I dont think there any slower than ramps but the trailers are heavy but they are strong mine is longer than the one in the add I think its ex Australian Army used in the Vietnam for transporting Aussie Army tanks Swishy I think would know more about these than me

Paul
