ABSTRACT:
A trailer is disclosed having a forward section, a middle section, and a rearward section. The forward section is adapted to be attached to the fifth wheel of a tractor while the rearward section supports the trailer on a set of wheels. The middle section extending between the forward and rearward section is positionable in at least two load-transporting positions at different heights above the ground. The forward and rearward sections each include fixed oblique support elements and locking pins for securing the middle section to the fixed oblique support elements at each of the load-transporting positions. Fluid-actuated cylinders are provided for moving the middle section between the load-transporting positions.
