There were 5 different AC trailer models: 6ton & 9ton DBW(deck between wheels). The 6ton had two axles & the 9ton had three axles. 6ton, 9ton, & 12ton DOW(deck over wheels). Same axle configuration as above, plus 12ton had four axles. The one in the craigslist photo above would be a model 9TDOW. All 5 models were 21'-6" in length, with 16'-6" deck length, except 17'-0" deck on 12ton. The DOW width was fully 96". The DBW width was 78" between wheels & 96" elsewhere. Their 5 spoke hub 12 ply 14.5"x8" wheels allowed 5 Deck heights of 24", 31", 24", 31", & 34", respectfully. Empty weights(lbs) for 5 trailers were; 3200, 3400, 3400, 3600, & 5000, respectfully. They all had 3 adjustable height position Pintle style hitches. |

Here's a 9 ton trailer that is listed for sale right now in Ontario. It looks to be in very good shape and not a bad price. https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cargo-utility-trailer/oshawa-durham-region/allis-chalmers-9-ton-3-axle-trailer/1351685026?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true" rel="nofollow - https://www.kijiji.ca/v-cargo-utility-trailer/oshawa-durham-region/allis-chalmers-9-ton-3-axle-trailer/1351685026?enableSearchNavigationFlag=true  |

| Some of the heavier AC trailers had 2 axles side by side, instead of duals. It was a terrible idea! Years ago, I had a trailer with a similar axle setup. I swore I would never own another trailer like that again. |

| There were some gooseneck trailers like that out here if I am understanding. The axle is about a foot between with a hub on each end. |

Heres a YouTube 19+ minutes video link of Allis-Chalmers "Big Job" about the Garrison Dam in ND. Anyway at about its 8 & half minutes left, you'll see one of the trailer styles that have its axles side by side. It's hauling a dozer to the maintenance shop. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx8wa7JLHbs" rel="nofollow - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Dx8wa7JLHbs |

Thanks for any help. It does not have anything to I'd it. Can take pics later this week but definitely fits the description given and pic above |

You forgot about the Terra Tiger trailer. And I think there were two small trailers that I've seen pictures of or see myself. I know one had a small vertical lip across the front and two friction plates where the wheel would drive on. ------------- D14, D17, 5020, 612H, CASE 446 |
