You are correct you cannot exceed the GVWR and I never said it did. The unit is considered a trailer so it falls under GCWR but it takes weight off the back of the truck and puts it back on the steering. I have no doubt Mike knows and I’m pretty sure my 30 years of heavy haul experience using...
You’re absolutely right, that’s why I don’t waste my time with a 1/2 ton. All I said was it would actually work well and for those that don’t want to buy the right equipment to begin with.
It would actually work very well, same as a booster on a lowbed trailer, and do the same thing as equalizer bars on a hitch throwing weight forward to the steering and back to the trailer axles. It has it’s own onboard compressor for the air bags and it’s a steerable axle, since it hooks into...

I had a Truck Boss and hated it. It was built very well but found it a PITA to mount to the box and take out in the spring and the slides had too tight of clearance, any water would freeze and make it a bitch to get them out. I bought this Snopro lightly used and love it. Extremely well built...
Exactly!! I don’t know about everyone else on here but I’m pretty sure if I told my parents I wanted to eat the box their response would’ve been something like “Fill your boots dumbass and let us know how that works out!”
My 19 165 is doing the same thing on the left side only, alignment and tension are good, no loose bearings or bushings, nothing bent, twisted or broken. The only thing I can think of that may be causing it is when riding on a severely whooped out trail. When the front of the sled starts climbing...
