    Ours are 48'. I have been told I would cringe if I saw a tractor driven onto the rear of one of those 53s with 5' behind the rear axle.

    I dont know how they flex so much lol. No cracks and it does not break. I would want some sort of jack system air operated on the back of one of these if I owned it.

    When I pulled a 53' I carried some heavy duty jackstands with me. Anytime I had to load equipment they went under the main beam. I just couldn't stomach watching the stress that was put on that trailer.
