You should really run a single axle tractor, the fuel savings would be astounding. There is NO reason lighting up the other two trailers would get you any trouble. We run stop, tail turn on our head boards with no trouble.

I stand corrected that looks fricken cool. Now just put a couple hundred chicken lights on the trailer, and maybe...just maybe a few on your Volvo. Depends on the model some look good with chickens others I just have to shake my head about. Do like the way that looks though driver be careful though as I don't know what DOT will have to say about the load being lit up.

You can light up the other trailers if you want to, nothing illegal about it at all.
And I understand why u have it lighted up, with just the small lighted area on the far bottom of your trailer, it is deff better to have the extra lights.379exhd Thanks this. -
Thanks guys I'm going to go ahead and wire them in. If dot gives me any #### ill just unplug those 2 trailers not a huge deal.. I'll post some pictures when I get it all set up

just make sure no red lights facing forward
SHC Thanks this. -
Since the rear of the trailer extends past the load there is no legal need to have the last trailer plugged in.
Personally it is not a bad idea to plug in the last trailer for safety reasons.
You could plug in all three trailers for the cool factor.
The down side to lighting the trailers is that if a light is out on one of the trailers you could get a ticket, at least out here.SHC Thanks this. -
BTW... you can drop one of those trailers off at my house please.
