    It was a 336. Had to stick the boom out to get the trailer to lift it.

    I had a set of those wedge ramps (steel) for one of my Murrays, but after years of trash & soil compators, they were ruint. I started using a couple 3' sections of aluminium frame rail, cheap & easy to find & used them for everything over the front. Rear ramps were made of T-1 about 5' long, 147 lbs. I have a set of aluminum ramps for the rear of this Cozad I pull now. Only about 80 lbs, easy to handle even for a geezer. I think I've posted this pic before. Ramps.jpg

    Bouncing would be correct! Rough roads, bad drivers and not so trucker friendly people lol. What are you hauling? I'll keep my eyes peeled!

    One day I got told by another local company owner,
    "Every time I see you your haulin' air! when are you gonna learn ya can't make no money hauling air!"

    I replied "My expenses are less to haul air, and the lower my expenses are, the more money I make!"
