Now that we have the truck backed up to the trailer and it's in line, we want to have
the pin on the trailer released, have this in the upward position and we're going to
lower the jack and bring the trailer to the ball.
You want to make sure that you get the jack raised all the way to the top to avoid hitting
the road, which is too low, which unfortunately this trailer experienced already. But the
jack was in the upward position. Should have picked a different Receiver Tube. Now we're
going to lock this on, you want to make sure, sometimes you might have to push back on the
trailer a little bit, some forward, you want to make sure that's all the way down. There's
a tongue underneath there that's going to hook the ball, and then I always take, reinstall
this lock, that'll keep the trailer from jumping off and keep anyone from stealing the trailer
when you're on the road, at the hotel, sitting outside your place, or anything like that.
