@quickfarms thanks. I'll take more pictures tomorrow and perhaps that will help.

@quickfarms good idea. I'll do that. At the same time, you can see that my problem is made worse by this hitch design. I don't know anything about hitches...are other designs possible? I'm going to start investigating.

@vintageracer "Either way you are going to have low clearance issues with a vehicle that long and that low to start with no matter what you do!" That's my fear, too. Definitely putting on castor wheels. Makes me wonder if I should just start with the castor wheels and test that for 2021...

@Lilnuts You raise an interesting point...I've been warned a couple other times now that my center of gravity will change dramatically. I drive this rig pretty slowly because it's so thirsty but high winds may still raise my heart rate. Your suggestion of the air bags may be a better idea given...

This is great. I'd like to build some shelves within an enclosed trailer that's 7x14', which I will be towing behind my vehicle (the trailer contains my adventure motorcycle). The manufacturer is willing to build them for me in steel but I'm concerned about the weight. Your idea makes me wonder...
