I don't half to worry about it I made this tilt bed for my zero turn mower. Slight modifications to the front Honda fits right onI love that method and want to do it but have commitment issues to exactly where I am going to part the Honda on the trailer lol... I keep trying a little forward, and little back just need to pick a spot and go..
Looks to me that you may have enough room to back up a little it to mount the brackets at the front. If that’s too far back, you can leave it the way it is and for sure mount some on the back for added security. @PistonHonda has a set up very similar as you and did that and a lot of worries went away while traveling.
If this helps...depending on the type of trailer you have you want to distribute the weight of your load at least to keep the load from bucking your truck. That being said...some unsolicited advice, I would hook up the trailer to your truck and pull your pioneer forward and back to see where it’s most evenly distributed on your trailer with the truck then mark your brackets to install. If you have already done this or know how, than Cary on my friend.
If I back up or have my cooler full on the back my bed doesn't tilt I thought about just putting the blocks behind the front tires and going to that front bar and then I have a strap through a d-ring on rear to the bed of the trailer I guess I could put those blocks on the rear tires and then up front I hook my Winch just for backup it's not tight
Yup then I would just do the back brackets. The strap for these have special side clips for the brackets not hooks, so just a hlaf bracket won’t work. Just do them o the back and secure another way for the front and you’ll be good.
Hay, that’s a nice trailer! You’ll have a bit of vibration at certain speeds that’s normal being that tires on a trailer like yours and mine are not balanced. Like I said before, just fined the balance point and mount the brackets and you’ll have it as best you can. As for your breaks, possible wiring issue, but most likely could also be a break adjustment issue as well. If you have ever adjusted a “drum” style break, that’s pretty much what they are mechanically just electric than hydraulic. You adjust them the same way. Hope this helps.
No vibration but I think the tongue weight is a little light sometimes at 70-75 you'll get a little bit of Wiggle wagon going and the axle I use doesn't have brakes I pull it with a 3/4 ton pretty good.
That does, for the breaks - if I manually activate them like to adjust gain I get a trailer disconnected message in the truck. Everything else continues to work - I will give that a try this weekend. suppose to be self adjusting but it will not hurt to pull and take a look at.
@Remington replied to your message but it seemed like he was answering some of my questions lol - I mentioned breaks needing checking on my trailer and had been posting about vibration.
Yup, that’s a working issue or your control in the truck. If you used a tuner on your truck l, on like my 08’ superduty with a time, there was a software update for the tuner that corrected that issure was previously causing conflict to the program initially installed with the tune. Just food for thought.
Lmao! Probably! Hahaha I was answering to two at a time! Apparently I was messed up like Chinese money!
I will do that... I need to find some level ground lol but I will do that.
That looks about right from what I can see of the trailer.. if you put the motor splitting the tandems you’ll have enough tongue weight. Just keep in mind when you add weight to the bike or trailer (firewood, gas, and other crap) that you balance it out. Better a little tongue heavy than light.
The wheel chocks are great but they take up a few inches of space. I was limited at the rear of my trailer and used these instead (wheel chocks up front).
