I have a similar trailer.Made from an old 5th wheel tyravel trailer. it has a 15' flat deck with a 2 ft beaver tail. pulled with a 1970 F100(302,4sp). an M farmall is about as heavy as it wants. However,I once hauled my 826H home after the water pump failed. it was really too much.The front axle is centered at 7(+/_).I like to load it with the rear tractor axle centered over the rear axle.Engine foreward. That is where it seems to balance best without overloading a halfton pickup.I agree with the other guys that a tubular frame is not the strongest.And,any water that gets inside will cause rust that will weaken and eventually fail.Add salt from wet snowy roads and it gets worse. An I beam is the strongest.For alight duty you could get by. For a heavy duty,do something different.Lately,I have been wondering about the 'structural integrety' of my trailer.
