[QUOTE="SDMF, post: 250809, member: 412"] I haven't a clue how this stuff works, only a couple questions. 1. Are the hydraulics to raise/lower the wheels the same lines that run to the hitch? 2. Isn't there some sort of a pin or lock that would ensure the hitch and wheels stayed in the trailering position? If so, one would think that the hitch and wheels would drop into trailering position if there was no line pressure and the house was lifted enough for them to drop. If there is no way to make the house "towable" without fixing the hydraulic lines, I believe I'd hire someone with a tilt-bed wrecker to haul the house back home for me where I could work on it on my time with whatever tools I needed on-hand. Or, haul it wherever he's going to have it fixed if he's not doing it himself. Mechanical problems with anything when a person is well away from tools, a warm (or cool) work-space, parts, etc. are a giant pain in the backside. Hopefully you and your friend are approaching the light at the end of the tunnel so to speak. [/QUOTE]
