@Edoc exactly. Glad I’m not the only one with real world experience watching a 40 year old man with toys on a treadmill trying to play RUclips engineer
Just make sure your vehicle and towball setup can handle that amount of hitch weight. If it cant you will need to move the weight closer to the trailer axle
@@sunofpeter2it is, but only if your trailer can handle it. You could break the tongue or your suspension might not be stiff enough, causing it to bottom out. There are different size trailers with different weight capacities, so it's really simple: know your trailer, and don't try to haul anything too big. Then, you can always use this technique.
@@CrawlerMedia I got yah. I have watched the demo with the same set up( models on a treadmill) and the load was placed further back and the trailer stable.
I transport a lot of small equipment for my work ( mini excavator, Bobcat etc) and it all depends on which truck and trailer combo I'm using, but I generally try to keep the majority of the weight over the dual axles on the trailer, but if I can't, then I always put the load towards the front of the trailer to avoid losing control.
This is crazy, my grandfather father actually taught me to ALWAYS load the heavier weight in the front of a trailer to keep it from walking now I see exactly what he meant
Its actually better to put the load above the wheels of the trailer cuze putting it all the way forward could take your front wheels up and your steering could cause problems
Then you have too big a load for the vehicle to handle anyway. If the front end lifts that high, you also lose the effectiveness of your brakes. Get a bigger truck. But people don't.
If you need to haul a skid steer maybe but for something that isn't so heavy you want in the front of the trailer. If it's a razor you actually have then I would put over the trailer tires but a gold cart or something similar you can also put to the front.These toys aren't accurate representations but it gets the just of it.
What all of you are failing to notice here is that UTVs are back heavy! The majority of the weight on 99% of the UTVs on the market are in the rear. By having the Rzr as far forward on the trailer as possible it is putting the majority of the weight over the trailer axles. If you center your UTV you are putting more of the weight to the rear of the trailer and that is bad. UNLESS, you back your UTV on and then in that case your going to want to try and get it more towards the rear of the trailer. Know what your towing is one of the most important aspects of towing.
you should more so have it directly over the tires of the trailer so you have full control. more weight in back of trailer means your back of the truck is lighter, more in the front of the trailer, than the trucks back is heavier and the front of the truck won't have much control for steering.
If you MUST load to the rear, dial up the gain on your trailer brakes. Make sure the trailer brakes apply way before the vehicle brakes apply. This can also save you in a tail-wag situation due to high winds. If the trailer gets wagging back there, grab the manual trailer application lever and get things pulled straight again. When you are out of those situations remember to return your trailer brake gain back to normal driving setting. Always load the trailer hitch level, when in tow and loaded. And, You can still get in a dangerous tail wag situation, even with load leveler bars and slider tension bar on the hitch.
Yes, this is why they have you strap it in place. The weight matters though. Here is what google has to say: "Following the 60/40 rule when loading a trailer is vitally important for safe towing. The best way to load for proper weight distribution is to start with the largest and heaviest items. Place heavy cargo in the center of the trailer, just forward of the axle.

over the axles is right, than control the weight on the trailer hitch...the rear axles of the car is important for stability, but the steering axles needs weight too
I don't know anything about towing but I imagine it's a good ideea to keep the weight between two axles. Not on the axles but between the axles. Anything that is not between the wheels of the car pushes from the exterior and the direction of the force is inverted cos of lever effect, while pushing right it pushes front to the left. And exterior in front pushes the rear in opposite direction so to make it stable ... between axles
It is very correct, the demonstration is not quite good here because with toys you dont have effects that have with heavy weight. If you put the load completely front as demonstrated it will lift the front part of the car and put a lot of weight on the back which will stress the suspension and on top of that you lose traction with your front tires so in some conditions you might not even be able to steer. This is different from car to car, it might not be so tragic on a ford raptor but on smaller cars it’s very dangerous! Keep the weight in the middle.
@@grosucristi6599 lever effect. The engine is far away in the front. You need a lot of weight on towing hook to lift the front. And there can't be a lot cos ... lever effect... The weight is closer to trailer axle then hook. So logically ... not on the trailer axles is best but in front of them. Btw we are talking about center of mass. To have the center of mass in front of the axle you don't need the entire load in front of the axle
Add in the scenarios of: 1. Going up hill, and the centre of gravity on the trailer shifts back, reducing the towbar weight even more. 2. going downhill where the excess towbar weight impacts sterring and breaking on the fron wheels. 3. a bumpy undulating road, you are all over the place.
Having grown up in OZ it's really common sense. Plus read the car manual, it'll tell you all about how to load a trailer. The number of times you can tell someone didn't read the manual and spec the car for the trailer when on a country drive is scary.
Problem that is also wrong, you want the weight in the center if possible. Cause if the weight is to much, it will remove weight from the front wheels.
The safe position is to have the load mass displaced evenly over trailer axles slightly forward. 60/40 ish. Don’t want too much tongue weight lifting front of the tow rig, but too far back on trailer lifts the rear of the tow rig and will cause trailer to sway badly at best.
Also accelerate, instead of braking if you want to correct the swinging by a manouver you regretted instantly. E.g. steering too harshly to make room for an ambulance..
i agree... for sure it will behave difrent when the truck is actuall the 1 pulling the trailer .. but wht he is showing here is both the truck and the trailer is towed
Its no joke folks, lost a cousin to trailer sway that ended in a rollover. They loaded a truck onto a trailer backwards(with the box to the front of the trailer engine to the rear). Going around a mountain curve there was someone coming down the middle of the road and my other cousin had to make an evasive manuve that he was unable to recover from.
It doesn’t take much either. We had my 26 foot enclosed full of 5 snowmobiles and supplies and fuel. Trailer was very squirrelly and unstable. We simply moved 5 full fuel cans to the truck box, and was night and day different.
Pro tip. If your trailer starts to sway like that, do not panic and accelerate! I know it seems counter intuitive to hit the gas when the brakes seem like a better idea to slow you down but that makes things worse. If you hit the brakes the trailer's momentum continues, and your vehicle now becomes a pivot point for that kinetic energy to bounce off. Whereas when you accelerate briskly you are pulling the trailer's front end out of the swerve. You are basically yanking the trailer straight again. You'll thank me later.
my ignorant brother once had guys load shingles on a dump trailer and they loaded em all on one end and my brother blamed them when he fishtailed and went in someone's yard. but in my eyes it's the drives job to inspect the load and know better... great safety demo video guys!
I was taught weight in front of the last most wheels in this case the trailer and the most weight over the drive wheels or close as you can get and I love this visual demonstration it's amazing
It’s better to have the weight over the axels because if you have it on the tongue/front of the trailer your putting all that weight on the trucks rear end.
Had an employee at my old job that loaded the back of trailers with heavy equipment because he swore it "saved time". We warned him but he said "BS". He lost his job after he jackknifed on the highway in high winds and destroyed our skid steer.
An anti-sway hitch is a must. Also, if you ever get in this situation, accelerate to get the trailer under control. Trailer brakes are also very helpful. And yes, I want one of these to play with too.
the weight in the back of the trailer takes traction from the back of the truck making it harder to correct, Thats very useful information especially for truckers
Doesn’t change the fact that people might not notice the car roll back while they’re driving. Even if it’s some how strapped you cannot predict the future.
One problem you need keep in mind with this safe setup: the pressure on tow mount will much higher. Control that pressure too. With higher pressure, your car will not more straight and front will go up a bit. Lights will blind other drivers. Too bad he didn't test it when thing is in the middle.
"Fish tailing" can occur ANY TIME there's ANY imbalance in the trailer load, including if there's too much weight on the tongue. This is why an understanding of weight & balance is so critical.
This is exaggerated because he is using a weightless toy with small hard plastic wheels and no traction for the truck and then a massive heavy trailer with huge rubber wheels. This is not to scale at all. Wheels on both trailer and truck would be basically same size and truck would be much heavier.
I don't know if this is accurate, because if you position the load too much to the front of the trailer, the majority of the weight will be supported by the car, which will make the front tyres to lose grip. Ideally you want to put the weight as close to the axle of the trailer as possible, this way, the trailer supports the weight of the load and the car can focus easily on pulling and steering
This is actually really smart and I wished we learned this in high-school because it only take 5 minutes to teach and you'll remember it forever.

It's only dangerous if you've got too much weight in the back end.
Centering the load over the trailer axle is actually the most stable.

Really good demo. I knew this but the demo is a damn good way of proving it.
Same thing goes for the load, folks. As far forward and weight centered as you can get it, in a pickup, moving truck, etc
You’re supposed to center your load over the wheels of the trailer, with a bias towards the front, but never all of your weight to the front.
See the weights
What I was told
50 -75 kg weight on the hitch
That’s what I always do
Yeah I agree. It would have nice to see him put the load right over the wheels which should be the center of gravity for the trailer.

WTF...i literally just wanna go towing my cousin car and what a chance that I found this video about the correct way to towing a car😅😅
Yt do be stalking you
so towing a boat (weight of the engine in the back) is a bad idea??
No because the axle(s) on boat trailers is typically further back
Just don't pull it with a Ford,I guess?
How many trailers have you seen with the wheels in the middle?😂
Golf cart trailers and a few landscape trailers. They are smaller than this setup.
No, it demonstrates why balancing the trailer is critical. A boat trailer should always be front heavy
the weight in the back of the trailer takes traction from the back of the truck making it harder to correct, Thats very useful information especially for truckers
Doesn’t change the fact that people might not notice the car roll back while they’re driving. Even if it’s some how strapped you cannot predict the future.

I cant say.just..... how how how .that simple .he taught everything very simple.
dude explained the concept of center of gravity in 60 seconds.
Man paid attention in physics class
Imagine towing a load and a giant hand comes out of nowhere and knocks your trailer off balance to use you as an example
I don't know if this is accurate, because if you position the load too much to the front of the trailer, the majority of the weight will be supported by the car, which will make the front tyres to lose grip. Ideally you want to put the weight as close to the axle of the trailer as possible, this way, the trailer supports the weight of the load and the car can focus easily on pulling and steering
It's a basic understanding of increased effort distance leading to the load becoming heavier and unstable. The wrinch acts as the pivot here.
As a trucker this is the reason behind a balanced load and ensuring I slide my tandems to make sure the heaviest of the weight is over my drive tires.
Great job dude !!! now my son wants his toy truck and trailer to do the same
