Post by: M4wdFab on May 16, 2013, 08:28:35 AM: We cant have two wedges in the lot, so this one is getting sold, or mike has to sell his

this one is in way better shape, but i think a smaller deck, like 36' its about 4-6' shorter sitting next to my new goose that is 42'

better shape wins.

if you need mine gone feel free to ditch it at South, or I can.
It needs springs serviced (parts dropped in its tool box), matching working wheels and tires, some welding, and some paint before it goes up for sale.

36' deck sounds a little short. No tag, so no known GVWR? Exceed it anyway. Extensions & flips of a solid trailer sound easier than off a flimsy pile.

ill measure it.

is the longer deck worth keeping though over this one??

Not sure what your thoughts are, but it seems reasonable to me to work off a solid base that the bubblegum hackjob

Post by: mr.mindless on June 13, 2013, 09:47:50 AM: Seems reasonable to me. There's already a two car open (my lowboy) and soon a two car enclosed.

At least my wedge can pretend to hold 3. And it would never fetch that $
