    I have a 35' Kaufman wedge Trailer, I've seen it done and need some help and advice on how to extend to haul 3 smaller cars. Where or who would I need to talk to about ramp extensions? Also how much overall length would I need to add? Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

    You might be better off to sell your current trailer and buy a 48' pr 53'. If you want to keep your current trailer, at the very least you will want to add front and rear flippers. You should be able to add 4' flippers on either end without a problem. You can go to the factory or a trailer dealer that works with car trailers and they should be able to weld on some flippers. You may also be able to find a welding shop that can do it for you. If the shop can't custom fabricate flippers for you, try calling the factory, explain what you want and they may sell you pre made flippers that a local shop can weld on for you.
