Cayo C-11 on flat bed trailer?

I am looking at a Cayo C-11 TC that I will have to put on a flat bed trailer. It will have to be a 1 time trip to pick it up so I'm trying to find the depth of the drop on the rear. I think I can make it work with something like jforb built here: http://www.airforums.com/forums/f417...ion-73739.html
Can someone tell me how tall a platform would have to be for the floor so the rear would clear? I have seen some dimensions but not this one.
Thanks,
Greg

I'll get you that measurement tomorrow when I go out to work on mine. If I remember correctly it is 16 inches from the floor to the bottom of the pan. You have a fiberglass tub right? Not aluminum?

Thanks! I really don't know, I'm trying to buy this from a couple hundred miles away and am just trying to make sure this is going to work the way I'm hoping it will before I pull the trigger.

Congratulations and welcome to the fun!

I measured the pan depth and my recollection was WAY off. From the bottom of the floor to the lowest part of the rear pan is 8.75".

Great! Thanks!
From pictures I've seen that makes perfect sense, and I'll be needing about a 13" platform so my grill will go under the cab-over, so that should work perfect.
