Thought you were just down the road, from some of your comments..... ;) I am not aware of any such requirement. I am a farmer so much of the laws get ignored, but they are concerned about weight, weight, lighting, and weight. The pickup needs to be able to handle the gross weight of the trailer. If the trailer puts enough weight on the rear axle, then the axle will need to be beefed up until it becomes a dually. But not for any specific length, but for a specific weight. I have my own trailer question - my brother in law bought a tandem dually trailer, he is guessing it's a 20,000# trailer. Can we figure out what it's liceneced at from the plate numbers? the guy he bought it from put the plates on, & want to see if he's up to code. also, what are the MN requirements for a safety chain for this thing? I see clss 1/2, 3, & 4 chains in the store, does class 4 muster it or is this something beyond? Thabks, --->Paul of Klossner
