    Son in law needed to replace one of the crossmembers under his trailer, and was unsure of what the best route would be.

    After looking at it I determined that straightening the old crossmember then adding a heavier crossmember would be best.

    Needless to say the trailer wasn’t heavy enough to allow jacking the crossmember back into place. But by using a little ingenuity from my younger days of working with uncle Lester, it straightened up nicely.

    Didn’t feel like crawling under and doing the welding, so I used my 3rd hand and secured it so it couldn’t tip back over. Now for the next project.....

    RED PENCIL would have been acknowledged and correct! 210 not 215....hey, been over a year since I even sat in a big rig....surprised I remember what little I do!

    Evidently, @farmerjohn64 is correct.....[watch out for head swell]....did you swish your hips and shoulders when you snapped my faux pas?:p
