Looks way over built, frame and trip axle wise, for such a chicken shit deck.

What's the bolt pattern and axle tube diameter? That'll tell the tail on tonnage, moreso the diameter but lug pattern helps too.

Looks like a trailer. Maybe 17ft to the dovetail and 20ft overall. Triple axle with a pintel hitch. What else can I help you with?

Looks like an early 70s miller equipment trailer... or they copied one. They are the only manufacturer Ive seen to the long narrow awkward tounge.
Heres a good assortment of millers to scroll through

Good Morning!
Interestingly, none of the Millers on there (or any other site that I was looking at) have I beams for the tongues, they're all c channel tongue.
But they are the only ones who have that long tongue consistently across their trailers.

2BB is like the Total Newb but for random construction equipment and tractors instead of mullet mobiles.

I see that now, I saw the flange on the bottom and the shadow or the edge of the top and thought it was ibeam.

WOW, Thank you, i didnt think it was homemade i got it dug out and ended up getting it fairly cheap but when i looked at how the dovetail was done and the long tounge it didnt seem home made, this look very much like what i got. I really appreciate that.

Forgot about those. The awkward forward facing chanel sticking above the deck and the square pintle mounting surface is very hudsonish.

And why exactly did you feel the need to drag it home?

I got it for 2k, ive been looking for a while, anything decent in south Florida is 4 to 5k, for me to get it where i am will be another 2 to 3k in shipping and tax. All my other trailers are for boats or 40ft chassis for containers etc, nothing to suit moving equipment.
I figure 2k for that is a decent frame and starting point, going to change axles out and put on new rubber and make some money with it. I was trying to figure out what it was so i had an idea on origin and specs. Not sure how it ended up here, had a JLG man lift on it and buyer had no use for it other than to get the lift to his property.
