Noted, I guess it’s a moot point now.
I’ve just noticed that a few states consider a 59’6” trailer as legal, and a few consider structural items as exempt from Permits, IL, TX, OK for example - (though MO throws a wrench in the works).
Case study. 58’6” tubular product, WI- TX, $5/mile, requires Permits in WI & MO only. 1100 miles, 2 days work.
Since I’ve had the stretch, for a relative new comer to OO and platform, the opportunity for minor increments in length has yielded far more than regular 48’ trailers and width. ( Aside all step/RGN etc).
Just like to throw in the alternative thought patterns @Pedigreed Bulldog

Some of the chain pockets are torn from chains, must've hauled some heavy loads. Those chain pockets are only rated for 4,000lbs.

Also trying to source some 22.5 wheels for that trailer since it comes with 24.5s
