[QUOTE="Dave, post: 1744940, member: 498"] I dug out some of the dirt where the trailer sits and put it into the alley. The result is that it is only a couple inches up into the trailer. When I built it the opposite was true. The ground inside the alley was considerable lower and it was a big step up. Loading small calves was terrible. I just dug out to where the trailer wheels sat. So now when when I back in the wheels hit the end of the dug out I know I am back the right distance. I also put a round red reflector on the post on my left side. During the day I can see which post I am backing up to. After dark it really helps to get the trailer where I want it. [/QUOTE]
