Got my M105 trailer home today-closer to bob

[Bcurtman]

I pulled my trailer in home just before dark today. Very nice, clean, and dent and rust free trailer. My Tahoe pulled it like it wasnt even there, except for when I hit a bump and the tailgate would flop- that would make a horrible noise. Couldn't close the tailgate cause the racks were in back and were like a 1/2" too long and I didn't feel like wrestling with them. I'm very close to ready to start cutting, but now I'm debating whether I should go air ride.....I know where there is a peterbuilt air ride axle in a wrecked truck....

When I single it out, do I use the lug nuts for the inner wheel or do I run them on and then put on the wheel and then the outer nuts???? That question just occurred to me before I came in the house. Nope, I haven't searched yet....

I take it you mean singled out on the rears? What wheels are you using? Stock wheels,just get some lugnuts that fit on the front or out the wheel on first then use the budd nut to hold the wheel on. Do Not put the budd on first then the wheel, you need the wheel to sit flat against the hub or it will flex and crack or break the studs off.

That makes perfect sense. Thank you!

Now, who knows how to make my iPad let me post pictures?
