    Mechanical rgn trailers do not have hydraulics. You were lucky to get help like that but you can always disconnect the leveling valve on the truck and trailer to manually add air to the suspension.

    This is exactly what I did in Florida last month when I had a little high center problem with my car trailer.

    Glad you got out and didn't drop your drive line

    only if it was a ground bearing trailer equipped with hydraulics. Always double check the hauling pin. A non ground bearing trailer will un hook when you lift the neck. Or at least that's my understanding. Then of course you have the mechanical detach trailers too

    Great idea about 24 hours too late...but I'll certainly add that to my repertoire of things to do for the next time. (He said wondering why he wasn't a smarter trucker.) :)

    Should have gone with the quarter pounder instead of the double!

    One super size to many!

    Shoulda skipped the shake!

    Yep I can see them too.
