The machine is 300 pounds. The new carrier is maybe 75 pounds, or less?

So I would think the weight of the hitch (with battery, hydro, steel case) up front and the trailer being 18 ft long, should make my 36" carrier/with machine feel like almost nothing.

Plus with the two receivers....the hitch will be close and sturdy so if will almost seem like nothing is there.

But if there's a problem, I can always add weight to the front.

Thank you White Garden for you question, because that was something I didn't think of.

But like they say in the trailer business, "The hitch must still go on!!!"
