Ok was just reading the reviews at Amazon. I’ll probably try to use 2x4 to test it out. If it does work I’ll buy the trailer plus ramp.

Its ok to raise it loaded with the car right? Its a hustle to unload just to to tire change.

You need 2 - 2x6's nailed together to get the trailer up high enough to change the other axle's tire.

The trailer must be used though. It can't sit there for 6 to 12 months. Not good for the tires.

Yup sprayed the frame with anti corrosion spray. I plan to have the trailer tuned and checked before I travel again to the Dragon this October.

Im getting jitters at work! Too much stress with covids. We had multiple deaths last week. Mentally affects me.

Hi Rusty apparently this wont work on my trailer as it has a leaf springs. This thing only work with torsion type of trailers.

It would only raise my good tire but wont lift the flat one. It would have been convenient. I guess back to Daytona yellow. I just hate to bring extra weight on the back of my truck.

It worked on my camper. 10,000 lbs with leaf springs.

Fluid Film. A lot of the Power Wagon guys use this stuff for corrosion protection.

Not good man. Trying to call the "how's she doing" number and no one is picking up. She was still on the ventilator when i called last night. "resting comfortably" what ever that means when they sedate someone. Covid test came back negative and super fast somehow. I thought it was a couple days to get results but they had it back last night.

IDK if I should sit here and wait or sit there and wait.

Hopefully they’ll get the fluid drained & find out culprit,,,then get things back in working order...Prayers :tup:

-ZS-Carpenter 08-23-2020 07:53 AM

Got through to ICU. They have lowered the sedatives enough that she wakes up and can communicate. Still on the ventilator and sounds like she will be for at least another day. The nurse said they might start easing back the O2 after the Dr sees her to see how she does. They are giving her meds to clear the fluid, waiting to see how that goes.

I'm going to head that way in a bit. I'll give an update from the parking lot when I have more news
