Dave, around here, there were many of these single axle trailers built for the farm. You took whatever axle you had be it a rear, or front, with the spindles welded straight. My favorite was a rear axle, with the gears out of the pumpkin, then you welded 4 pieces of angle iron, straight up, one in front of the axle, and one behind, on each side. You then took a piece of 3-4" pipe, and laid it between the upright pieces of angle. Then you welded a top piece of whatever scrap was handy, over the top of the 2 pairs of angle. Then you welded up a tongue, to the rear, and a frame to the pipe, with the tail end longer than the front,yet balanced to the tongue. This way you can rig a latch to the front, and build a body on top of the frame. When properly loaded, you have a couple shovels full of what you are hauling, to throw toward the back, pull the latch, with a rope, and wham, the whole load dumps by gravity, as you pull forward quickly.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
