    Not even by 4-7%? I thought that won't be too much as long as it's not every load! I have had a bad week and trying to double down. Just today I get the Ritchie bros and I had to give up the load because I didn't feel comfortable self loading without assistance. Felt like I was going to drive the load off the trailer. I have too much respect for the veterans on here after today. I'm not sure if it would've even been legal. It was horrible.

    So after explaining that concentrated loads on a stretch trailer are generally not a great idea and posting that your trailer is only rated for like 30-35 tons concentrated- you want to load a 20’ battery that weighs 47 tons concentrated….

    is said battery in California?

    He was a ####ing idiot. And if that’s who you look up to well… that makes, Nevermind. Just stay in your lane. You aren’t going to make very many friends here with this kind of crap.

    I imagine out of Savannah. They aren’t paying great and they want like 1-1.5 mil in cargo. Paying like 10 bucks a mile. That’s why he wants them.
     
    Oxbow, Feedman, cke and 1 other person Thank this.

    But to be nice and answer your question. I don’t know where you’d rent a booster. But like Ron told you. Your trailer isn’t reinforced for one and your neck is too short for a jeep. There is a #### ton more than just attaching #### to your trailer
