    Ah, gotcha. Nice looking setup BTW. I can't find my #### cord to download pics, but will pick one up at the TS tomorrow, and will try to get something up tomorrow night (NOT the most technologically adept, I'm afraid..LOL)

    OP, sorry 'bout the threadjack....

    don't buy an xl,,junk and very hard to get any warranty fixes,,their 45 ton is really a 35 ton,,buy a doonan if you can but,,a 45 ton with a flip goose neck extention is better than a cheater,,if you have a flip axle install a winch in the goose neck to pull your flip axle up

    How do you like the fontaine. Stinger looks a little weak. How well do you have to be centered to hook up. Do you need to be dead center or could you be out a little.

    a magnitude 55 ton would be my top choice with stinger. second would be a trailking, last choice would be an XL if my life depended on it. (I think I would contemplate my demise even then!)

    You pretty much have to be dead centre. It's the trickiest trailer I've ever used.

    Anyone using the Landoll 855C series? A family member was thinking about buying one of these and I was just wondering what anyone thinks of these.
