    Grab some cut off 2x4's say 6 inches long made of Oak, use the air bags as jacks.

    Pretty sure he is going to have to drop his air bags to get under that one. Now..who didn't do a tug test???? Or this is the worst thing you can hear as your merrily sitting there doing your logs after dropping a trailer.

    Yup. I keep a 4 pieces of 2x4's under my bunk for just this occasion and also when a trailer is dropped too low. drop the bags so you can get the end of the frame under the nose and put air to it. Crank the gear down then drop the bags again and use the lumber on the frame and lift it up again. Crank the gear down one more time and you should be able to get under it.
