OK you should be fine for hooking up most guys go pick these things up with pickups that the hitch is to low to set the lunette down on the pintle cause of the landing gear wont crank down low enough to hitch up so thats why i push for the high lift jack for those guys ! Worse case you can take a shovel and dig a hole if on gravel or unpaved ground to drag the landing gear into the hole so you can latch up and unpin to pull the landing gear back to stow away and there are to electrical plugs for that trailer a military plug and a civilian plug you can get on amazon or ebay way cheaper than a truckstop !

Thanks for your help everyone, we hooked up the glad hands and everything went smoothly (thanks to some knowledgeable friends that helped out). The missing cage bolts turned out to be in one of the side panels, though thankfully we didn't need them. Man this thing is heavy!
