    Wrong! My woman is far more attractive than that (and she is heavier). Yet beauty is in the eye of the beholder, as well as love. :biggrin_25526:

    Saw a flatbed double with wood produce bins yesterday. Only the front and rear on each trailer was strapped, one strap on each end with a rope around the top bins to hold them together. The front trailer was bowed downward six inches in the middle of the span. It's not supposed to do that, is it?

    I meant to ask our flatbed guys about this anyway and this looks like a good time.

    If it was a older all steel trailer they will bow in the middle as they get older. Just like the human body packing heavy loads and age are not a steel trailer friend.
    For the most part the trailers are still good, just look like they overload with the bow.

    If I remember correctly the bowed new trailers flatten with load, then rebow when empty.
