    more than you would think...especially when going from reverse to forward!

    but it has been parked in the yard since Friday - having motivation problems.

    going to run my big trailer to the shop tomorrow and then take it to the dealer. I have an issue with the leveling valves o the suspension. I have airin the passenger side bags bu not in the drivers side

    I have zero idea what that weighs. But tires or tracks get 4 points from me. Do you have chain pull ups? Do you have any short chains? Will your binder hooks fit in the machine.


    My idea not knowing your equipment. I would short chain the back corners. To trailer. Short as possible. Two binders direct if you can hook them. Or short chain two short loops with one chain to hook binders into.

    Ideally with the right equipment for the job. You in theory could use one chain and 2 binders to give you 4 direct points.


    Some 6 foot chains with one hook, Maybe a standard hook, and a grab hook on the same end.
    Clevis shackles are must have. I would suggest investing in some for that type of work. Problem I see with your rigging is that a failure of that one chain reduces your securment by 50%. The chain is not separated to constitute separated devises. That chain as shown is one tie-down, that is pulling two different ways.
