Well I tend to do things different than everone else.I've seen a gang of trailers and gooseneck be fabricated,and all are awesome!I wanted something alittle different.I would like to thank the fabricator of Unimogers rig,Microgoat and Kenny Bunkinfilzertienmer (7 time world champion tow rig fabricator out of Guientien Germany) for giving me ideas.When finished I hope it looks something like this.It won't have all the bells and whistles as Microgoat's tow rig.But it will be cool as hell.Right now I working on getting a set of Nylint axles locked in low and finding a good replacment belt for both sets.If I can get everything thing wired correct I will use HG equipment.Enjoy.

We used to have two of those four car hauler Internationals. POS wreckers too(well, when they worked they were flipin great), got rid of them within 100,xxx miles and a few transmissions, international still hasnt man'd up to that either. Though we got 2 of the normal 2car haulers from them, those are beasts. You didnt say if you were doing the four car or just the 1 car flatbed with a wheel lift. Cant wait to see some progress.

This will be one fine build. I hope that someday I get to play in this league (Goat, Colquitt, Unimoger, Minge...you get the idea).
