14K with 14' L X 81"W X 2'H box. I've never hauled a tractor in mine, but I think it would be fine for a tractor with a belly mower. If you needed to you could raise the dump so its inline with the ramps so the mower doesn't get hung up. at 14 feet my trailer wouldn't be long enough for a tractor with a loader. I've seen guys hauling tractors with the loader raised over the tongue but that isn't legal as the loader has to be tied down. Some say the sides make it hard to tie a tractor down. I don't think it would be that big of an issue. Drive the tractor on, hook the front chains, and hook up chains and binders on the back with the doors (gate) open, then close it up.

A flatbed trailer would be better for hauling a tractor, especially if it has a loader, but it you only have one trailer, a dump would be something worth looking at. My dealer only had 12' and 14' in stock. If I had it to do over I'd get a 16 footer with 3' tall sides....but I'd need more truck to pull it.

Smallcrawler touched on an important issue. Deck height. A higher deck is better for dump trailers.

Today's Featured Article - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce ... [Read Article]
