[QUOTE="melted welly, post: 7778283, member: 37168"] Either put flotations on the lorry and get it reclassified as agricultural vehicle, buy a proper trailer or remove the box and mount it to an ag chassis with frame and rams fitted as per normal ag trailers. you’ll struggle to have enough oil to tip the single rammed lorry body with a tractor, it’ll be painfully slow and if you go down the road of pto pumps you’ll wish you’d never started. From what I’ve seen with our old 6wheeler conversions, the rear suspension set up doesn’t lend itself to stability with no front wheels either, plus if you reuse the axles you’ve a great big diff housing dragging it’s belly in bouts of straw or acting as a land anchor in soft going.
