I am leaving Friday for Ocean Lakes. Due to rain coming in and lack of time due to work I was wondering if I could hook up today? I so, I would need to use landing gear to take the weight off the truck? How about unhooking? Rain/moisture cause problems?

Thanks

If your truck's suspension will handle the stresses of =towing= the FW down the road, why would sitting still in your driveway be an issue; jacks down or not? :) Just make sure you do a full checklist before you drive off. Have seen a couple trailers with bent landing legs from people driving off too quickly and not checking everything. Hell, =I've= done it a time or two when still on the farm and much, much younger. :)
