Anyone seen or used one of these

It does say it's for TEMPORARY support to get to a repair place. I'd much rather be able to use something like this to get to an exit or service area than be stuck on the shoulder of an interstae.

"The AxleCrutch is a temporary support device for multiple axle trailers with leaf spring suspensions. The AxleCrutch is easy to install and permits you to drive to a repair facility on your own.The AxleCrutch provides temporary towing capabilities to a trailer that would otherwise be immobile due to axle, suspension, tire failure including: bearings, hubs, leafspring, u-bolt, lug nuts, spindle, and wheel"

That would be a awful lot of weight to put on a single tire especially when they are already loaded to just about their max, then to double that. Probably would not get far with a TT or 5er. :(

X2. Well said.

I was thinking about being stranded somewhere. You could probably limp to help or get to to a safe place to park it until help arrived.

It would need to be a pretty severe pinch for me to resort to using that. The last thing I want to do is overload an ST tire.
