TrailManor Owner's Forum - View Single Post - Anderson Video answers a lot of questions

So, since Padgett has mentioned many times (I do not mean this in a bad way, Padgett) about weight being distributed back to the trailer axle, does the Anderson eliminate the rearward transfer?

I don't see how the plate removal is simply pulling the pin. If there is enough tension on the chains to torque the TV frame to put weight back onto the front axle, without using the wrench to loosen the chains, I don't see how one could remove the plate. If I have to use a wrench to tighten the chains every time, seems like it is going to be hard to get the same tension each time I hitch-up.

I watched the video at work, so I didn't listen to the audio. Maybe it explained it.
