Gravity Box Mounted On Tandem-Axel Gooseneck Trailer
Here's a gravity box mounted on a tandem-axle gooseneck trailer that's great for hauling corn on the highway. Pulled with my 1-ton dually pickup, it's handier and easier to hook up than the conventional gravity wagons we previously pulled behind our tractor. Plus, because it's got brakes and brake lights, it's safer to use at night.The rig consists simply of a 450-bu. capacity Parker Brothers wagon mounted on the gooseneck trailer frame.
This set-up is exceptionally good for hauling corn on the road. It's not much in soft fields, however, because when the box is full it's quite a load and it bogs down pretty easily. (Jim Cook, 10201 710th Ave., Zearing, Iowa 50278; ph 515 487-7505)
