Also if you add a peice of 1 1/2"x2 1/2"x 18" tube steel to the rear pocket, it has a piece of channel under the keyway for this reason will help guide, if it's an empty container doesn't have to be all the way on the trailer and can throw a strap over but if it's loaded you still need to winch it on to where he has it, also because it's not part of the trailer frame you still need securement every ten feet, those 2 chains by dot standards aren't sufficient. We all know that thing isn't gonna move the way you got it though.
Hey man great video I run a trail-eze in Denver and I have a real hard time with containers i have a few questions When you are first winching it up are all breaks released truck and trailer with only the end of the trailer being used as a break? I also don’t have the lip on the edges of my trailer like yours would I still get away with the first part when you got it on without the lip? And are you going to have a machine offload that? Because I usually leave about 2 feet of overhang so I can walk the bed and get it off far enough to where I can drive away from it at the end Thanks
Took to long. I can show you how to load in 10 minutes without the winch. Lock the trolley brake get under the conex then raise the trailer to almost level with the deck and back under the conex working the remote lowering the trailer as you go
It makes more sense to square up trailer with container, since this concept is easier on equipment, container, parking lot, etc……

Nice but the winch is not necessary.
