Dual use trailers

[bird dog]

Has anyone ever used or owned the dual use trailers made by Gooseneck where the livestock top part can be removed so you are left with a equipment hauling type trailer underneath? I 'm curious how much time it take to remove the top part and any other issues they might have
Thanks in advance

We had one back in the late 70s or early 80s and they work ok for hauling hay but I wouldn't reccomend one for hauling tractors unless it was a small tractor
Neighbor has one he bought a few yrs ago and it takes him about 15 minutes to take the top off we drove 4 pipe in the ground and put crossbars between them all he does is pull under run a cable thru the top from one post to the other in front and back and each cable is attached to a boat winch and he cranks it up then he has 2 saw horses that he sits the top on while he is not using it

good info, thanks. I was worried about it being to narrow. Would it haul a 70 HP tractor?

I would be doubtful most of what I see guys hauling on them are the little 25-40hp toy tractors
