Hi all Couple of horse trailer questions.
What is the general opinion about the little cable dealie that is designed to trip a safety brake if the trailer were to somehow become dis-engaged from the hitch? My brake and tire guy seems to think they are more of a hazard than a help - that having a disconnected trailer suddenly lock up its brakes would offer more potential for disaster than whatever awfulness is the option. What is acceptable/standard about greasing up the hitch? I hate it when the mechanism for cranking the trailer gets all stiff and resistant. Can I just pour some lubricant down along the length of the thing? Do you grease the hitch itself? thanks, love my Sundowner and want to do it right! pat farmer =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
