Is this a hard dock, or am I being a wuss?

Anyone remember the old Chicago Waterfront mkt? good times.

Surprised no one mentioned this, but if you want to try it:
When you're set up and backing it in, or stopped, doesn't really matter, try pulling the trolley valve (trailer brakes) and lock em there, keep going back as tractor jacks. That allows you to jack the trailer butt-end around a bit quicker. But it does scrub the trailer tires more of course. Works better when on gravel. I rarely do it for last 10-15 yrs. as I own my trailer and gotta pay for the tires too. Years ago I'd see some guys do it like experts, looked like they were driving a shag/yard truck and whip it into a hole like nothing. Probably were co. trailers though. Try it, just don't tell your boss/company you're doing it, cause of tire wear etc.

 

Oh yeah ..... the 'steering axel' trick - I forgot about that one ...............
