We use a big heavy steal 18 ft. no brakes , does have beaver tail and metal floor with open center section. LED's Requires 10 ft long ramps to get 914 on the trailer (just barely)
Takes a 4.6L Ford F150 to marginally get the job done. makes 10 MPG towing. Not my rig and I would not go this route as there are lots better choices. |
