| I am looking at a bumper pull trailer with living quarters and read in Equus that living quarters cant be put in them. This one has it from the factory and I am concerned about the handling. Does anyone have one? Suggestion? |

Location: Florida | I am not sure if you are asking about a specific model? However, I saw that Lakota has them. But if you research a little deeper you will find that there is a trailer aid for heavy tongue weights that actually has wheels. I can not imaging the amount of weight a LQ BP puts on the truck is going to be good. And when we were looking for our LQ I was nervous about the trail aid with the wheels. Good luck just make sure your vehicle can handle the tongue weight. |

| I have a one ton dually with sway bars and such on my truck (I am a woman bare with me)that is designed to distribute the weight of the trailer and the truck. This a a great trailer but I don't want to get blown off the road either! |

Location: Florida | Correct the Sway bars control the roll in the rear end. Good choice. When it comes to hauling horses bigger is better! |

Location: Florida | reading slower. Now if you are talking about the iron bars that go from the hitch to the trailer and are suspended by chains. That is a weight distribution hitch. Also very important on a BP. That lessons your tongue weight. |

| yes this hitch is big and it has the bars. So all is sounding good sir? I have a 1974 Winnebago (Don't laugh) now that I haul the trailer to the campground with! Now that is a sight to behold! |
