There's still room for one more bale on the tongue!

Awesome idea on the hitch. That alone put me a step closer to buying my first big green truck.

What are the two back trailers you have there? Any more pics? Nice work!

It puts me closer to buying a fifth wheel trailer to pull with my big green truck !!

Very impressive farm engineering right there !!!

I agree with everyone else on the hitch idea. Wonder if you could use a medium towbar some how to do the same thing.

I would like to see this work with a 5th wheel application. I have been trying to figure out a way to use my Duce to haul this trailer around.
Ofcourse the duce is going to be tall and have the 1600 R20s on it. Ill post photo of the trailer. BTW Its ugly trailer but it pulls great
and its 38ft long.

Did find a application to make the 5th wheel to a goose neck.

I would think you could make a hitch the same as the one in the "hay train". Only thing different you'd have to do is to make the hitch accept the kingpin instead of a ball. You may also have to extend it out a little farther for clearance issues with the wide neck.
