kdawg Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Alright, I'll assume I can figure out how to get my trailer to tilt as it's supposed to (previous trailer post). So once you get one sled loaded, how on earth do you get the second one loaded on a tilt trailer? Do you have to load both sleds simultaneously? I don't have a second sled YET, but I'm gonna be looking for another soon. I'm guessin it would be good to know how to load 'em before I get a second one. My new motto, "Buy it first, figure out how it works later". Thanks for all the help fella's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Red Cabin Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Drive the first one on, but stop short of where the trailer normally tilts, set the parking break. Now you can load the second one, go a little farther to make it tilt down, put the pin back in, and make the nesassary adjustments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEADhead Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 I load one sled first and crank down the ski bar. Tilt the trailer back down and load the next one. Probably won't work real well if you don't have an assist spring or piston. With the spring installed, I can load my cougar all the way without having the deck tilt. Not the case with my T660 though; might want to load the heavier sled last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
68Goat Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 A buddy of mine and I split a 2 place tilt trailer and we just drove them up at the same time. Worked slick....went up together until the trailer tilted back down threw the pin in and cranked them down.Loading them was the easy part....draggin them off the back got old real quick. I have since bought a drive on drive off and LOVE IT!!!!!!!!JB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Macgyver55 Posted January 22, 2009 Share Posted January 22, 2009 Its even better when you buy a new sled with reverse instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
