    Delivered the 2 trailers that I brought back on Friday then preloaded 2 trailers for tomorrow. One was the RGN with a Komatsu 270 and then this flatbed of junk.

    If your chain hooks won't fit just remove the hook, pass it through and reassemble. Just don't turn your back on the pin, it will try it's best to run away.

    Man, I love seeing the loads you haul. Wish I had some of that gravy. Lol.

    What keeps those stainless pieces (not sure what they are) in the first pic from walking toward the back? I see you've got them on 4x4's. Is that all it takes?

    I know you haul this stuff all the time, so I'm
    tryin' to learn from your experience, if you don't mind...

    They are stainless lids for the big gray pieces stacked up in front of them. Never had any problems with them.

    There is enough down pressure on the straps to keep them from moving and they are sharp on the bottom. There is a piece of cardboard between each lid that settles. I go down the road about an hour and give each winch one click and they are done settling.

    I would imagine them being banded together helps with the walking issue.

    The Cardboard between the layers, I think, makes the biggest difference.. even though minuscule that little bit of padding, or sponginess helps keep the middle of the stack snug.
