Russ,

Thank you for that input. Is this rule regarding brakes a national
standard of some sort or is this a rule that pertains to operation in
some partcular states? I wouldn't want to have to mess with my nice
surge brakes on the glider trailer unless I really have to.


What you do, is to go to the nearest truck stop - they have book that lists
all of the requirements (lengths, number of trailers, etc) for each state.
It may also be specific as to brakes as well - it won't hurt to ask.

Note: Have you ever tried to back a tandem trailer before?

It can be done, but probably not by you or me.
