I'll pass this info along to hubby.

We have a 97 Ram 4 x 4 with the heavy duty towing package on it so it should handle the load just fine on a trailer like Dana has. We have just purchased a Bush Hog finish mower that would also fit if we needed it to. We have a permanent topper on the truck (to heavy to take on and off) so a goose neck would not work for us.

Probably wouldn't be hauling much. Only to the shop for necessary things. Hopefully not many.lol

We'll check out some trailer places around here and see what we can find.

Thanks for all the info. I'll post back when we get one.

Peters, Good luck with your new Ram. Watch out for Transmission problems though.

We are looking to buy a trailer for our tractor. We know from the specs that the tractor weighs 3000 lbs. Does anyone know how much a model 80 bucket assembly weighs? Or does anyone have any recommendations on what load capacity trailer to get?

Thanks for the help

Bird, the lady that I talked to at JD said that there is also 1 more book that we may want to get. It is for the diesel engine. I figure we've got enough to keep us busy for a while and will pick it up later. I really like the option of just calling them and presto you get what you want.

The fellow that we are getting the tractor from said with his other tractor he has when he has to do work on it he request the schematics for whatever he is working on. No problem they send it right to him. He now has a file with the drawings. That could be a big help too. My husband is an engineer and loves that kind of stuff.lol
