nice try...

With your myriad of trailer and towing knowledge, there are some things I didn't think I'd have to explain to you about tandem trailers and won't bother here. Just ask if you would like to be enlightened.

then i guess the only difference between success and failure would be my equipment was and is kept in good working and maintenence order... all other modus being the same that is.

Like I said "Wrong axle pal !!!"

Ragged Edge, are you buying the same brand of locks? If so, can you send me the company name and phone number, maybe I can call them and get a key for myself.

well guys if the rear axle was the problem it still could be from the other issue you had earlyer . the rear axle may have moved slightly and not be square with the frame and the weight in rolling on the rear tire right now and dragging the front tire . Now that I know I will start there to square it up . thanks Tim

I believe the were McGuard (sp?) same as the ones I just bought. Problem here is that I never registered them. Got some real good vise-grips?

Which reminds me that I should mail in that card.

well I just removed the locks by driving a impact socket on the lock with a sledg hammer and broke them loose witha breaker bar . they are gone . I still need to aline axles .
