Sidecar I saw your rig the other day. I walked around it while you where in the store. I saw two blown firestone airbags, d rated tires down to the wear marks, and a very worn out fully articulating caster wheel in the receiver hitch for support. It was worn so far down the receiver had to be only 3 inches off the ground.
Maybe in a dream. It's been sitting on the concrete pad until this afternoon when my wife and I put it in the truck bed. hasn't been on the truck all year. Been using the truck for fuel delivery to the field. Had a hard time getting the diesel tank out. Usually it's empty but this time it was almost full and it's a custom welded aluminum tank, with lift shackles but being aluminum, I didn't want to chance lifting it and spill a hundred gallons of diesel from rupturing the tank, so I had to pump it back into the bulk tank and then lift it out.
Don't they install caster wheels on pull behind's so when they go over railroad crossings they don't drag the bumper?
My bed height from the ground is 37" btw. 35 with the camper in the bed and 5 pounds in the bags.
