[VAC] Re: Elevating AS Trailer



Jeff,

In doing this with several different smaller trailers, 1961 Bambi, 1956
Bubble & my 1947 23ft. Liner I've never had any problems. My tow rig is
an old 80's Suburban. That hitch ball is capable of some "different
angles" other than what is considered "normal". Just be careful and go
slow. Remember to set the tow rig's brake and to use good wheel
blocking. Having a spotter is pretty important in doing this as well. I
only use the ramps when working underneath the trailer.

The thing to check for is anything that might roll around in the trailer
when it is up at an angle.
