Will 2 136" sleds fit in a 7x16 box trailer?

Im thinking about upgrading to an enclosed trailer, an add for a local trailer popped up and I am wondering if my 2 136" sleds will fit in it. The trailer is a 7x16 box trailer so no v in the front. I know that the sleds are too wide to fit side by side so can I fit them backwards or is that a problem? Both sleds have reverse so the backing is not a problem. Anyone have any experience with a similar setup? If I upgrade my sleds to long tracks say 163"s, is there any chance of getting them to fit? Also how does $3500 sound for a 2010 Pace Outback 7x16?
Any advice will be greatly appreciated!

Thats what I was thinking, the trailer shouldn't have wheel wells inside because the wheels are located on the outside side of the trailer. Is the smaller, easily manuverable trailer worth the extra sled cramming hassle?

If your sleds have reverse, then yes. If not, try dragging your sled the distance it would take to load/unload and decide if it is worth it. If your not looking for something with a drive off/tilt, then it wouldn't make much of a difference anyway.

Also, usually the running boards stay the same length when you increase the track and tunnel size, so you will still should be able to fit them in. Just remember however, it will be more difficult to load/unload a large sled without reverse.

I had a 6.5 x 10 ft box trailer I use for a pair of Exciters, which lie at 38" wide. Faced forward backward, they fit with inches in front, behind, on the sides, and to the roof. It is a large pain to load them in there, and they way under 400 lbs. Granted, some of that is also due to the tight space, even with a front door. Using my tilt trailer with both my Vmax's is much easier than that, especially with reverse.
