    Must have been a bad weld or bearing went out. Got to stay on top of that maintenance you know.

    it was the one in the middle on the left wasn’t it? I thought that one was a little too much. Live and learn.

    Well, there's one way to find a trailer's actual limit.
    What is that ? Just one more-itis ?

    This is so insanely idiotic, this load would be sketchy in a dual axle trailer. One must believe in a higher power to drive on public roads.

    I think the worst part is it appears to be on the highway if you look at the picture:rofl: :lol: First off, I’d never lose a trailer not designed for a load like that, but if I did, I be nervous as all get out just pulling it up the lane to the house! Let alone getting on the highway with it:rofl: :lol:Bet he puts his tractor he loads the logs with on the same trailer

    Perhaps if some of those straps were tied to the axle he may have made it LOL
