Is this stable if on while towing on a trailer?

I've never used it in that way. I can say it is a snug fit, so there shouldn't be any issue with the cover flapping around.

I don't see how you would be able to remove the crane from the trailer hitch while the crane is holding a load. The crane relies on the truck for stability and to act as a counter weight.

That depends on the height of the trailer you'll be towing. Go to this site to read about how to figure it out. http://www.etrailer.com/question-14216.html

No. This has a ball mount into it, so it wouldn't be able to attach the trailer and the truck. It is for locking when the trailer is not attached to something.

I use it with a dual axel trailer! It works fine, hard if you make a sharp turn!

Not sure what you have in mind. You normally put accessory units above the receiver and it does not interefere with towing. Below the hitch would make it impossible to tow simultaneously. Hope this helps.

AFTER I purchased it the instruction thing said, "Not for towing." -Basically it is for bike racks etc only. In my case, when I received it, I threw it to the side till I needed it to find this out. (well past any return time)I do not know the answer to the weight it can pull. Sorry.

I would not use these for anything that is suspended, like a heavy car. These are a lighter jack and work great for additional support to balance or keep a trailer from rocking. I used them on a trailer with single axle to keep the trailer from tipping back with too much weight in the wrong places since I was working on the surface of the trailer and walking around. They would work also on RV trailers to stabilize the movement of the trailer when parked.....

Yes, as long as the item you're towing isn't larger than a small car and not for very long distances.

Shouldn't be an issue; only raises trailer about 6 inches; would have to be aware of angle on shoulder of road, and if too much, move to a lesser angle.

I towed a little 3,200lbs. trailer and they keep my truck level. Tongue weight was about 350lbs. It's adjustable for your use.

I bought one of these a few months ago. I haven't driven an ATV over it but I have moved heavy washer/dryer combinations and other household furniture without any trouble. It's very sturdy and listed for up to 1500lbs. I think it would do what you're asking. I also agree with Jerry, the end hooks allow it to slide around a bit on the tailgate of my F350.

Good question. I can only give you first hand experience; don't do it! I had two bikes on this rack behind my trailer. I lost one bike and the basket of the other. Apparently, there is a lot more movement behind a towed vehicle for this design.

Depends on the trailer and car not the rack so much. The rack is lightweight. I pull my 4x8 trailer with my Volvo S80.

yes or better yet run it to your fuse block and install an on/off ( rocker switch) so your can flip it on/off at any time. Even rolling down the road to check your trailer behind you.
