[QUOTE="Monty, post: 6915540, member: 775"] I don't think I would fancy going through a 10ft gateway with 20ft trailer to be honest. To begin with drive as far away from the gateway on the opposite side of the road as possible, right up to the hedge/fence/ditch, Turn in as late as possible just missing the far gate post with the front wheel, keep the rear tractor wheel as close to the far gate post as possible and as the rear wheel is level with the post turn back the other way as you go through and the trailer should go through on the angle. Using a smaller/shorter tractor will help as well. Some gateways are just too small and impossible to get in with big trailers [/QUOTE]
