Is that a Homesteader trailer? Looks like it from the way it is made. I just bought a 2023 model and have had it in the shop since the day I bought it. My shop because I don’t want who ever builds these to do the repairs on my new one. Getting a lawyer would have been easier. Good job on yours and thanks for the video
I'm glad you said you sat there for 1/2 hour and look at it to come up with a plan because I do that often and thought I just wasn't good enough or tackle projects over my head but in fact is how (our brain) works to solve problem.

I know its off subject just had learning issues my whole life with no success no matter how many books I read on the subject until I went to college after my enlistment in the USAF back in the 90's. Before the VA would pay for my schooling I needed to go to adult education classes, basically to brush up on the core subject for the best possible success at obtaining a degree and not wasting the tax payers money.
Long story short at the learning center they had a psychologist on staff because you half to remember all of us served in the military and some in the gulf War so they needed to make sure what we were going to study was a good choice and that when the psychologist ask if I ever was diagnosed with ADHD, no I said and they determined after months of different tests during my refresher class at the learning center I had ADHD. Now that would explain just about all my issues I had as a boy in school except at the time they called it a trouble maker and class disrupter, lol
Wasn't happy to take medication every day but did with life changing effect just wish they know about this 40 years ago but never to late I guess.
I've been told I am to hard on myself and to a degree but if you don't push your creative or problem solving areas of the brain that area of the brain will become less apt at solving problems while affecting how well our short term memory retains what you've learned and later processed into long term memory.

The quality of these run of the mill trailers sure is lacking compared to the hinge I used to have on my old featherlite.
A come along to an anchor helps move things small amouts at a time
Trailer parts companies sell new hinges and you could have added an extra hinge to suport the ramp on that end
Weld broke?
I bought 1/2 tubular foam weather strip on Amazon that sealed up my drop real well
I wish u where my neighbor😂
Is this a united expressline trailer?
I bet you would perform surgery with a chainsaw. lol Man I love your vids
Sneakers ? Not very good Protection for Your feet !
Loved it when you took in that mosquito protein!! Watching in 2021 Corona pandemic
How does it lower? I have a similar ramp, door on a shed I built I need to open and lower.
I find myself just rewatching old videos lol until you put a new one out, really enjoy your content
Wow did they use some thin metal on that rear edge with the hinge area is.
