Yep! crossing the hoses did it, the minute you mentioned that and I went out there to look it was clear as day... LOL thanks again guys!

Some pics

Hope you guys can help... I hooked up my HEMAT trailer to the 5 ton (M923 A1), completed all the necessary hookups, wiring, air (inc emergency line). Trailer pumped up on airbags all looked good. Tried to pull off & all four wheels are locked (brakes on). So I checked everything again, made...

Excellent! Can't wait to see the results...

Is it my imagination or did all the wreckers go from sealed bid back to regular bid?
