[QUOTE="Electrician Mike, post: 1992041, member: 17487"] Was this a bumper pull trailer? If so, the chains should have been welded to the trailer. The swaying back and forth could have been after it came unhitched and was being drug by the chains before they separated from the trailer. I have seen similar things happen when someone uses a 2" ball to pull a 2 5/16 trailer. Did the wheels on the trailer lock up? Newer trailers have a emergency breakaway that locks up the brakes, but they are bad about jack knifing the truck pulling it when they do. [/QUOTE]
