it was upside down because we had to weld up the spring box hangers and shackle mounts (for leaf springs).

because sometimes andy doesnt think before he does things...

like when he is putting an 8.8 axle onto an all steel trailer that weighs upwards of 1000lbs and then gets everything on and figures out that he has to get it out of the garage and then flip it back over...

Ah I see, that makes sense. Your super off road trailer.
