Re corner latch pull-out. A question that rarely comes up, but should, is this.

Have you had your trailer wheels/tires balanced?

I've had a couple tire shops tell me "We never balance trailer tires!" WRONG! Unlike a car, the trailer has no shocks, and the "spring suspension" is quite stiff and unforgiving. So it is extra important that the trailer runs smoothly on the road. Among other problems, if the wheels are not balanced, the bang-bang-bang as the wheel rotates will try to pull out the anti-bounce corner latches.

It also, of course, loosens a lot of screws inside.
