    You should really invest in rear mounted loading jacks at the rear of your trailer. When your ramps quit holding, I thought for sure that frame was gonna leave the chat.

    Smoke is excess heat from excess weight. Not center load could be a contributor. You saved $200 but wheel bearings, tires, axles and brakes are not cheap. Destroy your trailer with these habits. The real tragedy is these easily influenced people looking for ways to improve their life believe guys like you. They buy a $100k truck and $50k trailer and they are broke in less than 6 months.

      No not at all, you could do this easily with a $50 breaker bar and a shitty socket set, but tools are an investment, because he had that powerful impact he was able to do the job faster and easier, another thing to think about is yes quality tools from any brand are very expensive for the average person but they also last a long time when you treat them right, the time strain on your body you save over the life of that expensive tool is priceless.

      I was just about to so. Ya once you get the right tools, you have them for a long time. Milwaukee is expensive as shit but I love them Dewalts are good to just gotta pick one brand. And I use my tools on more than just that load. Shoot I use them an at least a load or two a week. Idk if I have to sometimes but if it make me feel like the load is more secure I do. And I use them at home. Good shit Cam-gb

      A dually truck you mean? If your CDL and plan to haul weight and make decent money you should absolutely get a dually, higher operating costs like more fuel and more expensive repairs but you will be a lot less limited and the extra weight you can haul will more than cover the higher operating costs.
