Dual axle trailer

I tow a 28' car hauler, loaded with cargo. I load heavy stuff up front, the heaviest stuff between the side door and the axle's, and light on the rear. Balancing is important with this trailer, I've never had it sway, goes straight as an arrow. My friend used to tow the same trailer, we haul the same cargo for a season then the next season it changes. We figure out the best way to load each season and load it the same way each time. On our "big" trip of the season my friend loaded a bunch of suitcases right on the rear of the trailer. As soon as he got out on the highway and went over a dip the trailer picked up the rear end of his truck and turned him sideways. He has no idea how he was able to regain control and not crash. Those suitcases almost caused a disaster. Now that I tow that trailer I'm sure to load it tongue heavy. I'd rather have it tongue heavy than tail heavy.

These trailers are designed for the heavyset stuff to be forward of the axles. The tie down hooks are located in a spot that places the vehicle engine a few feet in front of axles.Then it's expected that tool boxes and supplies will be in the very front, nothing but the light rear of the vehicle on the back end of trailer.
