    Kinda put the trailer out of service. You can have only one or the other. OOS or useable.

    Out of service in the aspect it's kind of broken. But still drives down the road just fine and would not be out out of service at a scale.

    Forget to pull the hoses & electrical out before removing the neck?

    Nope and nope! Has something to do with disconnecting the neck though. I forgot to do this when I reconnected

    I don’t know anything about these HD trailers but something with the landing gear? Do they have secondary safety chains?

    Other thought, do these have some kind of lock around the pin?

    Well I could run through a list of things - I haven probably done most of them at one time or another - maybe

    Forget to raise the support arm?
    Lock the the booster pin and then not unlock it?
    Not air up one of the components?

    Run the pony motor out of gas would have been my first guess and my favorite - especially after filling a generator with the last gas in the gas can
