Certainly looks well cared for.


I don't think I had shown you the snowmobile club's tractor:

Although its labeled as a case its really a leftover David Brown design.  We 
use it to mow the sides of the snowmobile trails, works a treat.

Wish I could get it to camp for a few days but the shipping charge is more than 
its worth.

With 7000 lb on the axles, your tongue weight would be what, 700 lb?

A car can weigh something like 5000 lb?

That would allow 2700 lb for the trailer and all the gear ...

the latter one being with hydrostatic drive.

So the first one seems to be applicable to Curley's link.

I see no cast iron ballasts, so that would make the maximum weight

Can your trailer handle such weight?

Can your trailer handle such weight?
