I would put brakes on the other axle for sure
Should be easy to mount a winch, if you wanted one.Thanks. I’m pretty happy with it. It checks the boxes I was looking for. Adequate for the tractor and implement, but not too large for my other purposes.
That’s doable. But I was told that most people run single axle brakes. I’m going to see how it handles with single axle brakes before doing anything. The brake controller is turned down pretty low when I use my gooseneck stock trailer because the single axle brakes works pretty good.I would put brakes on the other axle for sure
Yes, hide away ramps that have a nice wide attachment pipe for variable width machines.I like the jack supports on the rear. Must have hide-away ramps. No need for those 200lb ramps you have to flip up. Good score!

Always thought I would not like flip up ramps. But I have them on my GN trailer and they are easy to use and extra wide.Hide away ramps free up some deck length but they’re harder on your back than flip ramps ever thought about being. Flip ramps can have spring assist and they aren’t bad at all to flip. There’s no avoiding lifting the whole weight of a hide away. Even if the flip ramp didn’t have springs you’re only lifting 1/2 the weight.

I had a GN a few years ago with mega ramps. Aside from being wide they were the best loading angle for a deckover that I’ve had.
First thing I notice about single axle brakes is tire wear. If you are carrying a load large enough that trailer brakes are needed, it's a lot of scuff on those two tires.
