Tow Rig

I'm looking for a trailer to haul my 78 Bronco on. The problem is the truck is about 84 inches wide at the wheels (35/12.50's) so getting it on a 6'10" wide trailer may be a little tight....not quite sure if I can squeeze that in there but common sense tells me no. Other than getting a bed over trailer or changing out the tires to get the Bronco on and off the trailer anyone have any suggestions on an appropriate trailer? <!--IBF.ATTACHMENT_56088-->
<!-- THE POST -->

Get a flat tilt back style trailer . The axles low profile wheels are under the flat bed like roll back. This is my next trailer. I get allot of rides that don't run so this will help me load them . Most I see are alum but I bet you can get a steel one. Good luck

On my trailer now I have ramps to go over fenders om trailer to haul my tractor . they come off for normal use.
GOOD LUCK LOST

I have a trailer that has fenders that are designed to be driven over.
This site- http://www.rollsrite.com/tagalong.html has one similar to mine to give you an idea of what I mean. Scroll down till you get to # 15KP20DE

Thanks for the info and ideas. I checked out the 'Rolls Rite' trailers they look pretty good. Either I'll go that way or get a 6'10" and make the fenders removable.
