The trailer is useful for carrying spare engines to swap out when the primary blows up.
If you can't make it precise make it adjustable.
I had the big brother to that one
1989 Volkswagon class 7 tractor made in Brazil sold in the USA badged both as Peretbilts and Kenworths I turned up the 8.3 cummins from 210 HP to 340 Hp changed out the 6 sp for a 13 RTO which was 8 inches longer so instead of cutting the drive shaft I tossed the leaf springs and adapted half an 8 bag air suspension from a Kenworth allowing for an 8 inch longer wheel base mounted a 30" artic style sleeper with side door entry added a pair of 125 gallon Peterbilt fuel tanks making it a fairly decent little truck able to haul 44,000 lbe and still stay under 64K legal in all sates on 4 axles. Some of the big trucks with 5 axles can't do that not and get 8.3 MPG and climb almost any pass without having to get in the flasher lane
Never try to tell me it can't be done
When I have to paint I use KBS products
