I got about half a mile up a track (to a lookout tower along the Magruder Road in central Idahoo) that was just getting TOO narrow and nasty for my trailer. I found a slightly wide spot and I decided to decouple the thing and reconnect once I got the truck turned around. Luckily there were big rocks and a tree to act as chocks - the terrain was quite steep, and I wouldn't have trusted my little portable plastic chocks to hold the trailer...
I am prepared to order a set of Dexter brakes with P brake levers. I just need to get some ideas about fabricating the cables and control arm.
Can anyone help? Pics would be great.
BTW, about five minutes after I headed back down the track, nine quads came by, loaded with camping gear and telescopes. I guess I could have used them for chocks. They_squeeked_ by my rig with it crammed tight against the up-slope berm.
