Homemade Fifth Wheel 30-Ft. Semi Trailer
We mounted a homemade fifth wheel dolly on front of a 30-ft. semi trailer so we can use our Belarus 1770 tractor to haul cows between pastures. The dolly consists of the rear end and axle off a 2 1/2-ton truck and is connected to the frame off an old truck. We bought the fifth wheel hitch at a junk yard and mounted it on the dolly's frame and tongue. The tongue is made from strap iron that we bought at a salvage yard. It was a lot cheaper to build than buying a new stock trailer. (Charles C. Hardenburger, Jr., 1995 Concord Rd., Haddam, Kansas 66944 ph 785 778-2962)
