(quoted from post at 21:07:28 05/25/16) Any reason why I can't relocate lights high
on fender and position plate between ramps?
I do the same thing I have them on a small 5x9 trailer that dumps. the pipe fixture hits the ground every time it dumps been on there since the early 90s. I use the cheap little round lights with the two studs sticking out the back(quoted from post at 22:10:39 05/26/16) We have a couple that have a combo round light inside a section of heavy wall round pipe welded to the trailer side. Pipe section protects light assembly. Must work, been there since the 80's and a whole slew of yahoo's have pulled it
(quoted from post at 10:09:30 05/26/16) Bret, I googled and posted what I found out about Indiana somewhere. Do have anything
better? Please post.
So tell me where I can mount the lights and not damage things when trailer swings in a
turn. What I have isn't working.
Secondly, trailer has 4 D rings which I use to secure tractors. Then I use 4 more
straps and stake pockets for backup.
One time I almost put the trailer in a lake. I wasn't paying attention while leaving a
friends house. His road is about 30 feet above lake on each side. While making a right
hand turn, a steel pipe in concrete grabbed my finder and pulled trailer off the road.
I looked in mirror, saw backhoe about to tip off the trailer. I nailed the gas, pulled
the trailer back on the road and without the straps on stake pockets I'm sure the
backhoe would be in the lake. I Worked about an hour getting fender off the wheel. The
fenders is made of heavy diamond plate metal.
After that lesson, I will always use 8 straps to secure load. Didn't know stake
pockets were against the law. What is your solution? I want to strap my loads 8
ways to Sunday.
My first thought when I almost went for a swim: How am I going to explain this to my
insurance co?
Here is a pic of my only interstate trip. I pulled off at a rest park on I70 near
Plainfield. I was passed by many cops on I70, I 465 and I69. So why didn't they stop
me? Had they already meet their level of performance and didn't need to write more
tickets for the month. Seriously, I was told our state cops have to write so many
tickets or warnings each month or get in trouble. Is that really true?
