Squirrel Pull

Put weight over the fifth wheel
Some manufacturers add weight plates under the deck between the stubs over the fifth wheel. Some people put a flat piece of steel 4’x8’x1” and bolt it to the deck with countersunk bolt holes to correct it, if you have a spread axle, put a lift on the front axle and that will help when empty.

 

It’s not that there’s too much on the tail, it’s that there’s that much on the tail and none on the nose to compensate and hold it down// Hauling pavers I bet they don’t want to add a whole bunch of weight as it will cut the product load.
UTT?

 

I have found that sliding the 5th wheel all the way back to maximize wheelbase helped a lot.

 

utt does a lot of unilock pavers out of uxbridge

 

For pavers I’d have that lift on a top mount right over the middle light of the trailer. Natural and manufactured stone you can give up that deck space easily and still get up to weight. Ride better and won’t beat up on the lift so bad on the empty cycles.

 

Do you have wide base singles for drives and/or trailer?
