Dropping a trailer on the road scares the bejesus out if me. Every 2nd spring I have a full kit put in mine if it needs it or not. Spray bottle of 90wt, thinned with diesel gets sprayed under it in the winter to keep things from sticking, and every other spring it comes off and gets flipped on a piece of plywood I have, it lays on the back of the frame, gets a good cleaning lube and inspection.

Yeah it was very scary considering all that could of happened, but thank God it didnt
