Here's an "Oops" story that the goods folks here can avoid.
Was using the hydro dump today to dump some scrap logs and forgot to take the hitch/ball out of the rear receiver. Long story short when i lifted the bed, the lip of the tailgate got hung up on the ball. When I went to lower the bed it straightened of out the lip.
Not a big deal by any means and nothing I can't straighten with a board and a rubber mallet.
It hung that low because I'd droped the cables to spare my the tailgate from the weight of the logs.
Thought I'd pass this along so no one has to repeat my mistake!
