Fork lift trailers are ideal for smaller tractors and rollers etc, but you have got to be careful as a lot of them are very low, most I see on the motorway travel with the sliding roofs open, and the Fork lift mast sticking out. Also with the sliding roofs you will have to be careful when loading up engines that are in steam, or have been in steam, you will have to have it open to avoid melting the material, and if it's raining you have defeated the point of buying a covered trailer. Best to find a nice Step frame Curtainsider, Fit a rear Beavertail and Ramp, as said before check cross members and the state of the floor, you'll need to have good anchoring points, which curtainsider trailers won't have, replace the fibreglass roof with aluminium one, fit a winch and your away. It's that easy
or just stick to roading.
