Place is in Chicago, they sell Appex and Kentucky trailers but ive seemed to miss placed the name and phone#. I will see if i can dig it up for ya. You could get a triple drop 53' trailer and build ramps for the pullers to sit on between the neck and fenderwells and then flip the ramps up and run the kabota in a side door crossways between the two trucks
 
I was told there was a trailer place in Kentucky that you can have 20ft of living space and haul 3 trucks. The trucks strap to the floor and the floor lifts up in the front and slides forward on a 45 deg angle. I was told you can buy one for 31k with the living space unfinished. Kent Beeson told me about them.
 
well a kabota wont fit in a 102' trailer crossways,on the flat bed they stick out a foot or better on both sides,but your gona need a 45degree lift for two trucks,i'm sure about that,
 
All nascar trailers are over 53. They will build them and somehow get by with it. My neighbor (Dirtslinger pulling) had a 58" spread axle built to haul their 3 engine turbin and the 4 piston engine tractor plus built two lifts in it with one for the gator and supplies the other for a 6200 2wd ford ranger. It coupled with the 86' studio sleeperd w900 is a lot of rig to get around now.
 
53' is the norm in the easter us but there are 57' out west we have had a few come in at work that shouldnt of been here and this is commercial use private is a little bit different how much i am not sure

Come to Il and i can take you to my neighbors and you can measure his if you want. Call Kentucky and ask them what they. Its illegal for me to run b-truck plates(8000lb) and pull a gooseneck but i do it anyway. We haul machinery too. A 53ft you are not supposed to hang over the back but get a 48 or 50 ft and you can hang over as much as you want. Dont make sense, but it works. We have guys hauling a JD9860 combine and a 30 ft platform on the same trailer you just dont go through scales.
 
I have an 05 50ft enclosed for sale. 8ft tall inside heigth and 102" wide inside. Triple 7500ib axles. There's an add in the misc for sale. The living guarters are out and it might fit 2 trucks. Asking 18000
Give me a call 913 406 9010

Well first off its not over all length its gotta be 45ft from king pin to rear axle, so a 57ft spread axle is legal. 2nd off looking for another trailer to have more room for activities... Might have one truck might have three or none don't know yet... As far as the sponsership I guess you'll have to wait and see... A lot of rumors out there so guess ya gotta wait and see what roles out of this big trailer!

Exactly correct on the length. You can have a trailer as long as you want it, so you can take the kingpin and set it back under as far as possible so the truck still has full turn radius or you have your rear axles stuck further foward under the trailer. As long as the end result is 46' as stated above.

hate to derail the thread but so I understand. so you can have a 65ft trailer as long as the rear axle is no more then 46ft from the kigpin.

in KS you can pull 2 or 3 trailers and they total over 100' long plus the tractor...
 
You won't be making any events in California that's for sure. They are strict on their OVERALL length laws.. And even give Nascar teams a tough time. But they have been told to be lenient with them. But won't be with you.

But they will permit you for $$$$. As will ANY state, but may restrict you to certain routes. If you are taking several people, a couple trucks, and spend a weekend or more in a place, the permit cost MIGHT be cheaper than lodging, if the trailer has living quarters.

well I suppose if you can afford a 120k trailer. You can afford the permits. I have a feeling it will be a hassle too. Sounds like over height/over width usually are.
