    , Well so far I can cross off cottrell,sunvalley,suncountry,chapperal(which built my custom flats and has been bought out by doonan and they are not interested).

    Also no go with Hart , kauffman, transcraft, jet,and JM is out of business, flats and boxes are easy, seems less in auto haulers, where is hooper at?

    Appreciate the info LBZ, I am looking to have several trailers built specifically for a manufacture that we haul haul for. In a nut shell I am looking for a VERY short neck 5th and a VERY long lower/upper deck, with "drive thru axles" and a straight upper deck that can collapse all the way down to haul larger vehicles back, kinda sorta like a strap trailer but way different dims.

    It seems the biggest huddle has been the axles, just about everyone uses the conventional dual tandem setup and you have to go over the tires, I am wanting triples single to drive thru the tires, I need the space. For years JM used this setup but they went out of business in 2008

    Thanks again,
