Was pulling a dead 660 diesel up on our gooseneck flatbed trailer. It has "kick stands" on the back so the front of the trailer doesn't come up when something heavy hits the ramps... forgot to put those down. Had about 3 feet of air under the rear wheels of the pickup before the tractor came on the trailer far enough to bring it back down. Since then I always take along blocks of wood and make sure the kick stands are down. Also make sure someone is in the pickup holding the brakes and the trailer brakes. Unloading a tricycle tractor is fun as well. Used a bridge plank for a center ramp and it fell down while I was backing my F12 off the trailer. Front end of the tractor had to fall about 3 feet and I bent the hand crank. Luckily was backing off and not driving off... I'm having a good, solid, attachable 3rd ramp made for the trailer this summer.
