The chipper only has about 100 pounds of tongue weight. We get by moving it on the jack, at the moment. I would like to be able to move my stump grinder/ trailer around. It has a lot more tongue weight (more than 10% of the trailer weight), when the trailer doesn't have a can of grinding...

Different idea. A 1" plywood platform resting on top of the stake pockets, with wooden corners around the outside to prevent shifting. One idea I've used before on another project, is to use a giant nail through a slanted hole, drilled into the plywood, matching the opening of the stake pocket...

I'm envisioning a metal version that bears the load on the axle/ main frame, stabilized by the basket. I would prefer it takes tow slugs so I could use it on my 4400 pound chipper that has a pintle ring, not only on ball couplers. It's really useful to be able to manually spin the chipper for...

This would be the basic alignment with the hitch tube and tow-slug extending to the ball coupler or pintle ring. Is this making more sense?

I want it to be a trailer dolly. The trailer dolly lifts the tongue, for moving light trailers around, such as in the parking lot at the shop, or on a jobsite...

Sorry peter, I don't follow. For ball coupler's , it could be set up pretty easy like a gooseneck. A wide piece of wood or steel to span the frame, with the tow ball extending upward. For a pintle hook, it would seem to need to extend from the end of the AT.

I would like some talented design people to put up a clever way to modify the AT to accept a tow-slug, so that it can be a trailer dolly. So far, I'm thinking a piece of tube steel, run crosswise resting on the top pair of round tubes, that bolts, clamps, or sleeves over the 'bottom' two stake...

I made a plywood highway today. Probably need to buy some more plywood tomorrow. Arbor-Trolly'ed these, biggest one on the hand truck. The leverage wasn't there, as needed to load on the AT, without excess lifting by hand.

I've mentioned before, 4 PVC pipes as bright/ easily visible, cheap, and effective stake extensions... very helpful. My stakes and pvc ride with the trolley on the chipper. Trolley with the collapsed tongue, vertically. Stakes and PVC extensions riding upside down, threaded securely through...

Possible. I didn't look that closely, evidently.

I think it's just flaking paint.

I think its just cracked paint you're seeing, if we're looking at the same spot. Its bulged at all 4 sides. I wonder if their is a drain-hole in newer AT?

You can slightly see the bulge, and drain holes added.

I store mine tongue-up on my chipper. I'm drilling a drain hole. I had some rain freeze and bulge the frame. Just a heads up.
