Re: Trailer alignment system

Jay I cannot stress how much I love this thingie... my ambulance at work has a back up camera (had a back up camera...) and it also fish-eyes a little and it can be very tricky. It also has some red yellow and green bars to let you know when you're getting close... those do help a lot.

You talked me into it. I was in the Men's Toystore (you know: Lowes) yesterday and saw some there for $19.00. I know they're cheaper at Harbor Freight but HF is a good hour from me and I was already at Lowes. Anyhow, I bought them.

You were absolutely right: they are the cat's meow when it comes to backing your truck to your trailer. Extremely quick and easy and I'm thinking of putting them on the boat as well for that moment when the boat disappears down the ramp but the truck is still on the flat part of the pavement.

A great purchase!

Jay -- Glad it helped you as much as it did me :D I really liked the tip about putting one piece on the trailer ball. I'm pulling the boat out of my garage to work on it literally every day and this has chopped 5 mins off my prep time
