Re: First time “toading”

Frank, the angle of your tow bar is spot on with the riser. Just make sure of capacity. I know your frustration with the engine hatch. I needed to open mine on a trip due to a noise and I had to disconnect the trailer to open. Ugh! When I got home I moved the trailer jack. It may not look good but you could trim the fiberglass door to clear or just bite the bullet and remove the riser each time. As for the ladder possibly when you make a sharp turn going forward it may clear just have a spotter when checking also consider being in a dip when turning. When I had my aluminum v nose trailer made I had the tongue extended 16" and the tongue jack moved back 12". Some have damaged the lower ladder when turning. I've considered removing the lower section, keeps flannel heads from climbing up also. Jim.
