So most of you are familiar with my build on my C/30...



Well I didn't do it cause I wanted a garage queen, here is how I am putting this puppy to work!

Trailer 1:





It is a 21' Deck hydraulic tilt trailer with a 8,000 lb Ramsey Hydraulic Winch. It has Twin 8,000 lb axles, but the tires are only good for 3,420 lbs each so it wont be able to carry more than about 13,600 lbs gross.



In other words the next time a brand new POS Ford F-450 bites the dust and they have to put a new power joke in it, I can tow it with my heavy Chevy!

Then I am going to build this puppy.





It is a 2 car hauler triple axle goose neck tilt deck.

Both trailers are going to be built around the same function, they will both be air ride, and they will both be able to dump the air to bring the deck closer to the ground so as that they hydraulics only have to lift about 15 inches to set the rear of the trailer right down on the ground.

The reason for this design is so as that you can easily load and unload the trailer, there will be no messing with ramps or any such garbage, back up to what you want to load and pull it on with the winch, strap it down and go.

The best part is the winch, and the bed tilt will all be controlled with a wireless remote. I think they are going to be a good setup that should serve me well for a long time.

I just thought you all might get a kick out of looking at them.

In the next year or so, I'll have to hire you to build me the hitch trailer. Then a year or so after that build me the gooseneck trailer.

good idea for the gooseneck trailer. I think it's really cool you're using this one for some hard work, it's going to be fun shifting gears in that big block crew cab.

Thats a good idea but how many broke down Fords are really going to be hauling? or are you going to use it for something else.

I own a towing company, and I was absolutely serious about hauling the fords. Not many people can get an F-450 on a truck right now and Ford is having a major recall on them. You can not get a F-450 on a conventional light duty wrecker, it weighs too much.

hey i understand you on that one!
i have a 68 jeep gladiatior with armor and alotta goodies on it.. and it's hard to find a tow truck to move it..

Ekstensive in Houston builds trailers like those. I don't know about the air ride they use being able to haul 13500 lbs. But I know they are built right. I saw one of the first ones in person a few years back. Also no need to have it tilt. I wish I had some pics of the trailer tongue and how that worked.
