HOA fine! - Leveling and stabilization

Valet was just what we needed to add our drawer to our garage. This allowed for the precise control needed for precise parking. I didn't have the skills to tip the trailer into our garage and/or move the trailer to get it in the right spot for us to accommodate our second car. It would probably take me hours to put it back in place. . We had to remove the pop up window from the yard before the HOA noticed and started fining us! :) We had to move the battery from the front position back next to…

Pros
  • Patented raise and lower drive system
Cons
  • Hard to tell

IT WORKS!: Exterior

Pros
  • 8" Mounting Bracket

Does the job but production is questionable

I have a trailer valet and it does the job for a 2000 lb rig. I can't talk about anything more difficult. I had a few issues with valet parking straight out of the box. First, the screws weren't long enough. A second longer set would be nice. I went to the hardware store and bought longer screws, that was it. The second more important problem concerns the attachment. Mounting pin holes on bracket and bushing do not line up properly. I can't get the needle all the way in, so I can't attach the…

Pros
  • Set in minutes
Cons
  • Interval

Useful, clumsy, but above all, be careful!

Only three stars because while it's exactly what I was looking for to move the boat, it's really clumsy and can easily be very difficult to handle. Nothing is more affordable, be careful when using it. Problem 1: First, it's bulky and I have to leave it on my boat trailer. There are too many swinging parts to remain stable, so I'll tighten everything up when I reach the boat ramp. You can remove the wheel and crank, but it's cumbersome and requires you to have tools and spend extra time to do…

Pros
  • Posi-Traction for maximum traction and easy handling
Cons
  • Something different
