I think the reasonable approach to that project would be to design enough length into the trailer so you can get the tongue/axle weights right by shifting the load fore and aft and driving/backing the tractor on. Work with overall lengths of whatever you reasonably plan to haul. I recently bought a 'car hauler' to tote my Oliver 660. I was advised to buy an 18' instead of a 16' even though the tractor isn't much over 12' long. I did, and it has proved to be excellent advise.
