What’s this lowbed trailer for?

Is this for hauling scrapers? http://d323w7klwy72q3.cloudfront.net/i/a/2014/20140626const/I3941D.JPG Andrew

    I'm just guessing it's for some types of farm equipment. Neck looks a little light. It could have the drop section cut out to make a regular drop deck.

    I've never seen a combine trailer like that up here. Must be for a specific US state? "Here", they just use a standard removable gooseneck trailer. In the pics, it looks like the back end has been rebuilt - bumper/light box has fresh black paint. Andrew

    Probably a set up for a custom cutting operation. They set their trailers up for a specific purpose, and it wouldnt surprise me if they pull a header cart behind that trailer as well

    It would have to be a pretty small scraper to move on a 2 axle trailer.

    Ive seen some pretty custom built trailers for big fresh pea harvesters that were built like that.
