Post by brian »

so I guess we figured out that

K-52= ben hur/pe-95
k-63= ben hur/pe-99

anybody know of any other gen set trailers, with a K-number?

That is an interesting picture over on the G503.

Brian is also a member of this forum.

It is interesting in that the wooden sides and back are somewhat taller with the K trailer than the standard Ben Hur.

From my selfish point of view I will be making my newest Steel Ben Hur into a K series trailer. Looks like I will have to do some stuff differently and the Tarpaulin will have to be bigger.

Thanks for bringing it to our attention.
