animals. Here is what it says for a horse that is 14.0 H:
length of shaft from swingletree to tip: 70 inches
height from ground under shafts to back-band tugs: 46 inches
width between shafts at back-band tugs: 22 inches
width of swingletree: 30 in.
length from back-band to shaft tip: 19 in.
length from back-band tug stop to trace hook: 47 in.
distance from breeching staple to trace hook: 26 in.
diameter of wheels: 42 in.
A note about wheel diameter. I "think" the measurement for the
diameter is from the wood to the wood and does not include the rubber
outer part of the wheel. If that's wrong, I hope someone will correct
me.
