i have a 2H bumper pull straight load and it was always suggested to load the heavier horse on the left/drivers side,  now I have a slant, 2H BP, is there a recommended way to load different weight horses?

Thanks

The back stall of a slant load trailer is usually a larger stall. We tend to put the larger horse in that stall.

In a bumper pull you must be mindful of tongue weight. Too light on the tongue, and the trailer may sway. Generally, load 1 horse in front stall. If loading 2, heaviest in front stall.

In a 3H BP, load 1 horse in middle. Load 2 horses in first and third stalls.
