King sized forage wagon to cut down trips WAGONS/TRAILERS Miscellaneous 14-5-35 We built this king-sized forage wagon to cut down trips from the field to the barn when harvesting. The original wagon box was 8-ft. wide, 7-ft. high and 22-ft. long. The new wagon box is 10-ft. wide, 9-ft. high and 32-ft. long. Wheel track width is a legal 8-ft. and the wheel base is 20-ft. The wagon is outfitted with 6 wheels with a walking beam axle setup on the rear. The wagon frame was built with 5-in. I-beam and 2-in. square tubing spaced on 32-in. centers about the box. Sides and the roof were made from galvanized steel roofing. The floor is 2 by 6 tongue and groove planking. It holds about twice as much as the old one. We've used it for two seasons and it works great. To make the unloading head wider at the front of the wagon, Herbert took 2 heads and spliced them together. The unloader has three beaters and an auger at the bottom that discharges in the center. (Patrick Herbert, Rt. 2, Themesville, Ont. NOP 2KO Canada)
