Hi Tom,

A tri-axle will apply reverse torque weight loading upon the hitch on any terrain other than flat. There is no load sweet spot like a tandum axle trailer.

Just how bad is the reverse torque? Well I put on a piece of new 1/4" chain to move my empty tri-axle to the shop, (didn"t have a pintel hitch made up) and it snapped that 1/4" chain like nothing. Ohh yes the first dent in my new dually pick-up....LOL

Na, tire scuffing didn"t bother me as even a tandum will scuff alitte bit.
