First post from my cell phone! Lliterally just happened. Driving from Broward to Orlando, both horses in my little ancient two horse trailer. We have redone the floor, we have reinforced the tongue and the frame. It'll hold up an elephant if it would fit. Turning onto Osceola park, and kadunk...screeeeeeeeech!
The pin in the ball of the hitch had shorn off. Was just gone. My poor trailer with both my horses was dragging behind us by chains and the grace of god. I was watching sparks fly and the wonderful boyfriend was holding the back of my shirt keeping me from jumping out in the middle of the road to see if my beasts were ok. Every horrible trailer thing I've ever heard ran through my head.
Finally got to the side to check on them, and they're munching away at their hay. Oooohf. So grateful for safety chains.
Anybody else have trailer horror stories?
