with my welding and frame experience
as an Equip Tec
I would call this
a shame as we think about it
most all frames should be able
to handle some extra weight added
to the rear end
when properly installed (bolted or welded)
frames are usually
not
made so very weak
that not only should one not add to
but
must worry about the way in which
it came factory direct
while working at the City as Equip Operator
we at one time
ordered what looked to be
super light weight trailers
so as to haul some of the smaller
riding mowers
we all had second thoughts regarding these
but
even these weak looking trailers
although used for many many years
by some abusive Operators at times
I never remember breaking
now after reading many posts
I'am even concerned
when using the leveling jacks
do these little THINGS
put stress if not
raised gently and evenly ???
I'am being very careful with my frame
after a lifetime of repairing THINGS
now retired
I just want to go camping
not adding to
and
keeping an eye on this THING
seems to be possible
preventive medicine ???
