why would it need suspension, you're not going 20+ miles an hour down the interstate hitting pot holes with it while hauling 10 kids trick or treating on Halloween are you? i don't have one this big but my dad and i made one not as big as this back in the 80's and other than having to replace the wood twice from leaving it outside in the weather i've never had a problem with it. mine is about 1/3 the size of this with one set of tires and used on a john deere 140 h3 until i got my own john deere 445. a 3/4 load of sand will put this one in the video and my own to it's breaking point...quit loading when the tires start to sag go half if you don't want ruts in the lawn. oh 3 years ago i had to put all new tires on. the old ones were of an MTD rear and the rims rusted out and the tires were weather checked to the point they wouldn't stay on the rim after being stored outside all winters. about the worst heavy load i put in it after the tires went bad were mulched up leaves from fall clean ups. after the new tires tho i picked up several mature trees worth of wood to take to the bonfire pit and the useable to the wood pile. in my opinion, the suspension will made what ever is in the trailer ride smoother, but if it's not people or animals or delicate potted plants and such or 150 gallon water totes, suspension isn't needed especially below 15 miles an hour. most lawn tractors max speed is 10-12miles an hour.
X754 all wheel steer. all wheel steer sticker is on the rear fender pan on the side over the rear wheel. the series is on the nose of the hood above the front wheels and slightly back. this one is diesel
Nice build Michael. Better than what's available on the market! Sweet!
Tandem axle hydraulic dump trailer,. That is soo cool.
Did you buy it or make it. It is exactly what I need. Please tell me you have the design and material list to hand.
Fantastic trailer.
How well does the trail work with no suspension on it? Just wondering?
Jeff Schlagel it's got flotation tyres on it so they will take most of the bounce out of the ride but won't stop all of it

Sell the plans to your tandem trailer?
Hej, what model is this john deere??
It looks and sounds like a X758, It says 4 wheel drive and sounds like a diesel, so that's my guess. Cool tractor

Appears to be a Deere X 700 series with 4 wheel steer and diesel engine.
