    Have park straight/level to unload...... bend over and install shaft under trailer in all weather conditions.....


    I’m old ..... the less aggravating things are the better.

    Straight as possible helps, not so much level. The shaft(s) extend and have U joints. The biggest problem is drivers forgetting to remove them before driving off. o_O

    The trailers I pull all have to hook up a shaft as well. All hoses stay with the trailer. When I look at a Dana trailer setup I’m pretty thankful I dont have to deal with all the hoses. I only wish I could just have hydraulic hoses running to an orbital motor on the trailer for LP.
