I think I've got it. The load mount is a giant pivot point with a drag link mounted on the bottom. The bullster runs from that drag link to a drag link mounted on the top pivot of the rear two steering axles. The bullster must also be crossed for it to steer properly. The steering axles have to move opposite the load. Steering is almost like a giant fork lift from the back of the dolly. The hydraulics are just used for close maneuvering at the job site or tight corners. Am I close with this. Also what kind of speeds can you run with this setup.

Pretty much got it. As far as speeds you can travel, it all depends on what you're hauling. The trailer is capable of all of the posted speed limits. Usually weight keeps you from getting there though...lol
