slant loads

[Marinera@aol.com]

In regard to our reverse floor plan in our three horse slant load Featherlite 
Trailer, when we reversed the directions the horses face, it does mean more 
of the horses weight is on the banked side of the road.  However, in changing 
 the direction the horses face, it also reversed the tack room configuration 
so that the tack room is narrower at the door side  (curb side) and widens as 
you go toward the back. (highway side) Therefore, we hang the spare tires, 
the bales of hay and sacks of oats on the back  side.and the empty buckets, 
lightweight stuff nearer the door or curb side..   So far we have managed to 
stay upright, but as does everybody else whoever hauls horses, regardless of 
how the horses are situated, we worry a lot.  It goes with the territory.
