    Dunno, its more stable than its looks. If loaded well, and strapped properly it will ride fine

    Oh, I'd still give it a go, it just isn't a pretty one, and would make me paranoid the entire time down the road.

    Pipe and conduit is simple to belly strap. They load a couple bundles, you toss done belly straps. They load a couple more, you toss some more.

    I use my 5th wheel puller tool. I can push it half way through on one side and go around to the other and grab it with the hook. I did shorten the hook so I can get a better grab on chains.

    I also use it on my tarps. It's way easier to pull on the tarp to straitened it out or pull it to one side with this tool too.

    It's always preloaded trailers at that place. Whoever loaded it is probably at home having a beer when I get there to pick it up.

    Charlotte pipe is one of the easiest places to pickup at. Throw straps over top, pull through via small straps, hook and go. Filling out the qualcomm with all the #### Prime wanted took longer than actually strapping and hooking.
     
    skellr and Lepton1 Thank this.

    Unless Im mistaken skellr works for Prime as seen from the pic. Was saying from experience, Charlotte pipe loads are not bad.
