Not sure where this belongs, just figured I'd share my bad morning
Neighbor went into town, passed the corner where a bunch of us park our trailers over the weekend. Gave me a call.
Have 47,000 lb of sheet steel on, it didnt move so thats nice
Passenger side leg gear gave up at least 8 hours after i dropped it.
Its stable, couldnt lower other leg to take twist out of trailer. will get someone to lift it tomorrow morning.
