You need to look for a trailer with a minimum 14,000 pound rating. A high deck trailer will make your life much easier in the long run, because you can leave the wheels of the M dished out, and it will still fit on the trailer. When looking at the rated weight capacity of a trailer, don't forget to consider that the actual weight of the trailer itself is already being carried on the axles. Most car trailers weigh about 2,000 pounds empty, so if it has a 7,000 pound rating, then a 5,600 pound tractor will overload the trailer by 600 pounds. You can get by with doing this once in a while, but it is not a good idea, or legal for that matter.
