I can't tell from the pic... but did you cross your safety chains? they are supposed to be crossed in the event that your trailer comes off the hitch, it will be supported by the crossed chains instead of dragging on the ground.

Nope, not crossed.... can't I just cross them as I hook it up again?

The chain that falls on the left side of the hitch should hook to the right side d-ring on your rig, and vice versa. It looks like you have plenty of chain to do it. When hooked up, they will cross each other as they pass under the tongue.

Basically... the back 3/4 of the tub are made of fiberglass, and the front I used a set of quarter-panel replacment skins... so that all 4 corners have matching radius's... and the tob is two spliced together... :D
