Do you know the story on the upside down mounted pintle hitch on the trailer? Don't think I have seen that before.

with a bunch of tongue weight it can't pop off :beatsme:beatsme

you think of just sticking it in an auction and let the auction house get you what they can for it, its the easy way of course.

Can you help me?

Dear CM1995
I was trying to contact huntin24/7 on the forum, but I was not able to. Then I noticed you were conversing with him back in March 2010 about this Birmingham 20 ton trailer, so I thought you might know his email address or perhaps his phone number. Or, you might know of an other way how to get a hold of him. I would sure appreciate your help.
