    Hmm never thought about it that way. I'd only do it to either rotate tires or do some minor stuff like LBJ replacement

    Does anybody use a Weather Guard Pack Rat for storage? Found an old one at a thrift store that I'm thinking about using.

    Front first. We have always found it easy to balance the load between the trailer axle and tongue that way as most the weight is up front center ish.

    Forward generally works best for wind drag but can do either successfully based on where you locate the truck on the trailer.

    In a pinch I even used my Jeep to haul my taco. Just required it to be way back on the trailer facing forward. I have alot more freedom with my Diesel van but it requires a heavy tow rig to be able to handle the front of your truck on the back of the trailer. A 16 foot isn't usually long enough to get the truck far enough forward to haul facing backwards. Hope pics will help my rambling make sense.

    I didn't have to use any extensions. I have no idea what you've done there. There was a little drain valve on passenger side... did you disconnect a hose or something from further in the engine bay?

    If by cap you mean capacitor I wouldn't bother lol, doubt that will drain your battery especially since its a 4 channel. But just make sure to start your truck if you plan to run them with it off
