no pic but back the first on the trailor and then throw some ramps/boards on the front tires and drive the second buggy (frontwords) onto the first buggy. I've done this with a 16' trailor and two smaller buggies.

well I built my trailer so I can drive one on with the tongue on the ground then jack it back up. I have to see if I can fit both, one small, one medium on my 16'.

Back the first buggy on lay a 4x4 on top down to the floor helps to make a t with a 4x4 across the top then drive the 2nd buggy up the 4x4.

You gonna stack two on your trailer Jason?
I'm thinking that would be a lot of tongue weight with the axles that far back.
Your complete buggy would rest between the axles and the tongue it appears.

On Edit:

Nevermind.
Someone drug up a year old post............ :mrgreen:

My coworker has 18' dove-tail heavy duty trailer (he has a bobcat, a cat 22 and cat D2 he hauls on it) and to get both of ours on there we push his about 2' over the edge w/ the front beam on the trailer jack and take the front wheels off mine and drive it up on there on the brake drums (clank-clank-clank-clank! up the ramps) and it fits in right under his, then put the ramps up and let it roll back against them and then lash them both in place. Only drawback is reduction of turning radius before his flatbed on his pickup hits front tires on his buggy. I'll see if I have a picture of it setup at home, or take on this weekend.... I gotta say though, those ramps are really slick!
