DJ,

I was thinking that the single axle trailer was a little under-kill for a skid steer. You'll have a lot better luck with the triple.

Here's some of the load. Also got a 18' car hauler and and a 12' enclosed trailer for my bike.

Worked on trailer yesterday and today and got the modifications done. redid the plug and wire harness. cut of loader support frame and welded up a mount for the winch along with a few extra tie down points. also added the battery, changed to an Atwood 25K ball hitch and made a lock assembly for the hitch. just need to get the receiver and ball for the truck now. then need to check and service axles and brakes

Nice!

That looks a lot better!

If it was a gooseneck I'd be jealous.

Except for the mud and snow... If I had a truck to pull a gooseneck I would have converted it to a gooseneck .
First time using the Warn 8274. I love how fast the no load speed is... I will probably add a wireless winch control to it as well

It depends on which state you live in and sometimes on what type of drivers license you have. That being said I also thought trying to pull a double in anything but perfect conditions with a 1/2 ton truck seems a bit of a gamble to me too

I think its time for him to buy a 1 ton diesel Heh. Pulling doubles I would want a dually too.
In CO and many other states pulling triples by semi's is allowed but watching those triples wander all over the place in cross winds sure makes me glad I am not driving that truck

I know it is with a fifth wheel. I have brakes on the trailer and the boat.

I only pull it to a couple local lakes. The furest being about 40 miles. If we go to further lakes, I'm only pulling camper. Handles better than you would think. ALOT is in the actual setup of hitches. I have seen many 1ton trucks that can't go over 50 mph because the boat gets to whippin.

Here is a few of my gooseneck. I don't have any photos of my small trailer.
