    Dumb question here. With a beam trailer, do you drive the machine over the trailer and place the blocks in between until they are tightly fitting between? So essentially the load is laying on blocks?

    Close to yes.. You drive over the beam and yes wedge your blocks between, then lift the trl. and ld.. You'll find out real quick if it's centered or not for balance...

    Don't forget the blocks you have drive the machine up on to raise before you block it

    Best to be a lumberjack with that beam trailer

    I am just waiting for you to send me the check to cover the cost - I am thinking $40-50k should cover it
