    Well on a Cozad, yes you slide those blocks in and then take off you stinger to stack up.
    But if you look from the rear deck of the trailer and you will see a set of long steel beams on the trailer suspension. Then towards the front of the trailer, you will see at set of stop blocks, that the walking beams will hit if not properly shimmed and no air in the stinger and loaded.. You place blocks of hardwood there and like Ron even said. You can put your travel pins in place also.

    In knowledge for sure but after tarping my tank yesterday, I feel a little used up. However, I averaged 60 mph today across I-10 not bad for me at 175k or so

    Thanks I couldn't see the drop. Last I heard they quit and haven't decided what to do with the equipment, in a way it's smart as in this market they will take a bath if they dump it at Ritchie.

    I think thats why they have started Jones truck sales and have bought a few trucks at auction, mostly t-800's, to try and resale. The trailer in the picture is a scissor neck and they have the neck pinned in "high boy" with the Jeep being the low pro part. They had a pretty good go at it trying to get that axled out.

    Let me guess- @catalinaflyer bought it and had you deliver? He's got all the cool boom sticks. Go big or go home.
