Share Pics of People Hauling or Towing Something Wrong

The guy whose truck ran away while loading it must have caught on fire. He stopped dropped and rolled.

Like driving forward to get the truck tires back on the ground: driving backwards to get the truck tires back on the ground; dropping the BH boom... probably not quite as effective but at least it would be action.
Or before loading he could have put the truck in 4WD and/or set the brake; he could have used wheel chocks; jacks on the rear of the trailer to keep it from lifting the rear of the truck.
He could have stayed home!

How many did I miss?

On some newer trucks 4WD won't work unless you leave it running. The hubs unlock when the key is off.

That's why my ramps have legs to support the back of the trailer and not raise the back of the truck. Jon

how bout this one... definitely over weight for the truck and very secured as well.

Hope there no sharp curves ahead.

Now that's stupid. Before jacking it up into change a tire or do brakes is put it in 4WD and set the brake. I would much rather have 4 3 tires holding than 1 when I'm on the ground frogging around.

At first I did not appreciate this style of trailer until I bought one and find it one of the safer alternatives especially when letting family use it.

I carried a pair of jack stands and 2 pieces of scrap 3/4" plywood to put under them so they don't sink into pavement or dirt. I would put those under the rear of the trailer on the main rails when loading/unloading. Had to be a bit careful not to set them too high or the trailer deflection when loaded would jam them in there, but learned that right away. This trailer had separate ramps that slid into pockets on the rear, so no supports on them like the flip-downs often have.

The problem is, on a new vehicle with full-time 4 wheel drive (like a Chevy with a differential in the transfer case) that won't do anything.
