This short video will teach you how to properly load a trailer. The most important thing to consider is how the weight of your cargo is distributed onto your trailer.

Truck Organization - Weatherguard Tool Box Full Review
Here is my review of the Weatherguard Tool Box Model 127-5-02 - Aluminum Standard Saddle box in Gloss Black for my Chevrolet Silverado 2500HD. I've had this toolbox for about 2 years now, and used it in a wide variety of conditions. So far I have been very happy with its performance and quality. I've had many different toolboxes over the years and so far the Weatherguard has been well worth the slight premium you pay.
