Jdofmemi Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 I will start: I picked up my trailer today from a job site. My new one that hauls the Jeep so well. On the way out the driveway, my truck must have dislodged one of the drain grates, and it hit the jack leg (yes, it was raised) BANG! And now my jack and the front of the trailer are fucked! 1 1 Link to comment
Gruff Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Happens all the time to that brand of trench drain. That size of grate can really do some damage. Perfect example I use when telling guys to use our brand that has bolts on all 4 corners of each grate. Link to comment
AJK Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 Ohhhhh come on, thats some bullshit. Is it fixable? Is the main cross beam bent or is it just the jack? Link to comment

The front main cross member is bent to shit. The stanchions that hold the front upper rail are all folded over. The jack leg, surprisingly, seems to be fine. I will hit up the customer for repairs, but not sure how that will go. They have a good fabrication contractor on site, so I will see what happens Monday. Link to comment

It looks like part of the angle iron it sits on is broken or missing. I put the grate back before I left, but had trouble getting it to stay. Link to comment
