    I agree, you would really have to be careful. I know guys who could wreck an anvil, and they would not do this trailer any favors.

    Most certainly!
    I'm also not real keen on how the "outrigger" support that the deck seems to slide on and is supported by is a vertical flat with no flange for torsional or twist reinforcement.

    Right, let me guess, you're also one of those guys who has never forgot to unhook his air and electrical lines when detaching a trailer/neck or forgot to place or use a neck support when removing an RGN...?
    Cause I never have either, LIAR ... lmao!
    And I wasn't digging a boomer out of the dirt on Thursday because some jerk in a forklift drove over it cause that never happens either...

    Of course I know, it was a cynical answer to "Nothing ever bends..."
    Sorry, now that I reread it, it didn't read the way my mind was laughing when I was typing.
    I meant it more as like a Bevis & Butthead, "He said nothing ever bends or breaks" hahaha
