fenders are full welded, they're not going anywhere. Would have to ramp if it doesn't fit between.

would need to make the ramps not want to flip off, too. that's a thing with load all the way at the edges.

2x8s?

IDK, I think we'll have to feel it out to see if the ramps need to be extra-special or if they can just sit there.

that wide, the trailer tail ramps may need mods too.

I think I'll shoot to be there around 9:30-10 tomorrow. should have plenty of time

I don't think my trailer will even thaw, and it went to Ithaca and back. I hope it does, may shovel the last at lunch if it softened up.

Removal was the reverse of installation:)
