If you weren't so far away I'd sell you mine. Give me a day or 2 and I'll try to get some measurements

This is just my opinion, I would find some used pop ups (self loaders) just in case I need dollys. The pans were a pain to use.

I'm still looking for the info on old pan style dollies. Tube length and pan depth. The Tow Connections site isn't visited like this site is. I do have it posted there as well and it's been about four months. Self loading dollies have adjustable length tubes. Any help would be appreciated.
