Probably 3000 or 3500# axles... so capacity will be 6000 or 7000. A good 'car hauler' tandem with 7'x16 foot deck runs at about 1750#.. subtract that from gw and you have net load available.. See what the title to that old stock trailer says it's weight or gross weight is and do the math / guestimate. even if it was only a 6000 trailer and weighed 2000#.. that leaves you 4000# of payload... A ford N weighs about 2800 wet, and a mower weighs about 500-750 depending on brand. My ex- NH 1920.. a 4wd 33hp diesel, with a few add ons weighted 3300#.. add a 600 # mower and it would still fit.. what you trying to haul? Braking is generally more an issue than tow vehicle hauling power.. so be aware of the rules and your limitations... electric brakes.. if equipped will be a nice addition.. be safe! Soundguy
