Well we had an interesting lunch stop today on the way to Butte, MT, leaving McDonald's I had to make a sharp right turn and as I was swinging the truck hard right the brakes locked up on the trailer. I had blocked 2 lanes in a small town and was unable to figure out how to unlock them. An escort truck for moving a large piece of farm equipment came to my rescue, he said the 350 should pull it straight regardless of the brakes being locked. So I stuck it in low range 4 wheel and got the rig to the curb. The other escort driver said the brakes are locked, is the breakaway cable pulled out of the switch? I looked sure enough, the recommended tiedown position was too short on a hard RH turn! I'm glad it happened in a small town and I'm going to share it with my dealer who said where to hook it. (to the locking pin of the hitch).
