had a minor mishap loading the trailer
...mental note.. use caution when loading a van with zero brakes on a car trailer aiming slightly downhill LOL..rolled a little fast onto the trailer.. came to a hard stop at the other end against the electric winch oooops.. i wasn't planning on using the front or rear bumpers anyway got lucky no panel damage | | | Re: early poptop dodge saved from the weeds #12149 December 07th 2004 2:16 am | Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 201 enthusiast | enthusiast Joined: Oct 2004 Posts: 201 | gravity is fun .....does that count as gravity ? eitherway it's fun ...i guess . sucks about your bumper and your winch tho . | | | Re: early poptop dodge saved from the weeds #12150 December 07th 2004 2:49 am | Joined: May 2003 Posts: 6,115 | OP Joined: May 2003 Posts: 6,115 | i had a chain around the axle to the trailer side rail that was supposed to catch it-
but on it's way onto the trailer the chain slipped off the axle..
i was in front of the van just before it came crashing,but i did see it slip-
did all the towing,loading and unloading alone
and the van has zero operational brakes right now LOL.. had to slowly bring the trailer to level ground to roll the van back on the trailer and chain it down- the pitch on the driveway didn't seem so bad till then LOL
the winch never was hooked up as long as my freind
has had the trailer,only scratched the cover on it
the bumper didn't fair so well but the nose is safe behind it...sad about the bumper,but i'm goin to roll pan both ends as planned-
was a good bumper lost to a good cause though-
it's goin inside my shop for tear down tomarrow
-going to start a album for pics of this project to post as it goes along
-tomarrow i remove the condensor from the roof
