Default Al-Ko Trailer Tongue failure

Bolted under the trailer! So if the tyre in-use tyre has burst and the trailer has sagged down you may have to go under a jacked up trailer to unbolt it. I have done that - once - never again. Very frightening when trucks pass and the trailer sways.

An under-trailer wheel should go in some sort of cradle that it can be slid out of. Failing that carry a very stable axle stand.
