So you wheeled it!! How did the trailer flex, if at all, and did you notice any binding with the pintle setup? I want to be able to do some light wheeling with my M416 when I get it ready, and a multi-axis hitch was one consideration...

Only issues i had when wheeling were when we got into tight spots, turning the trailer around is hard enough but add a cliff to it and it becomes much harder. Pindle hitch never had any binding issues. since i still have a hole in the side of the trailer where the kitchens going I only carried water in the trailer. after looking at the trailer off road i may look into some different leafs and do a leave under as i feel like the trailer is a bit taller then i really want for extreme conditions. May fab up my own suspention but thats further down the road. These trailer tow like a dram Now if i can just get my grinder back ill get back to work. It fried on me last week
