He has a bay set up for frame straightening on trailers up to 50'. I got a tour of the shop and I was impressed. They do mostly truck/trailer work but also do campers. They had four other campers in for service when I dropped off my camper. I had concerns about driving it there but Herve the shop manager told me to run a strap around the rear and front axle to keep the rear wheel from running too far back. I took it slow and had no problems.
Did any of the drawings show addition of gussets above the spring hangers?
