Today I went and picked up our new trailer, its a sure-trac double axle landscape trailer with brakes on both axles. Its nice! I will let the pics speak for themselves had to test it out with some weight on it!

I hate built in ones. proportional brake controllers are much better IMO. But neat set up. Must be the hill of the drive makin her squat a bit.

The driveway is perfectly flat in that section, its squatting like that because of the hitch drop I have set up right now, need some more drop to make it a bit more level.

I think that more of the squat is coming from the fact that all of the weight of the tractor is so far forward of the trailer axles. I'll bet if you backed it onto the trailer so that the weight was more centered over the axles it would sit a little more level.

Haha I wish, thats when I get to make the financial decisions not my dad, this is perfect for what we need, but as most of us know it can never hurt to over do things! I worked for a company two summers ago that was a vanguard boat dealer, we had some sweet trailer rigs ill try to post some pics up if I can dig around for them. We would also build custom trailers and before I worked there they had built a trailer with two davits to load and unload boats.
