[AT] Little OT-trailer wheels

[Lew Best]

No never heard of it but it is a great idea.  I've chained axles up before
but that's lots simpler than jacking the trailer up.  As to the kero & oil
that would get REAL EXPENSIVE these days.

Lew I shared that because I realized you probably didn't know what I meant 
about chaining up the axle.  It's second nature to me.  Back in the 70's, 
trucking in rural areas without the help of cell phones truckers had to 
figure out how to get home the best they could.  I've also put kerosene and 
motor oil in the fuel tank of a diesel truck when no diesel fuel was 
available.  I used to know the proper mix but I've forgotten.  Seems like 
about a quart of motor oil to every 10 gals of kerosene or maybe every 5 
gals.
