Got them moved to Fresno!

That trailer is a bit too short to get the car properly placed on the trailer and the GCWR probably far exceeds the Durangos rating . It would be fine for an A Body or modern compact but not C-Bodies….
Anyway glad you made it home safe .

It's Not Going to Shift Itself
Durango's tow rating for the 5.7 is 7400 pounds. He's well within that. The6.4 can tow up to 8700.
With an equalizing hitch , trailer brakes and proper tongue weight maybe … but you can see how it bottomed out the rear springs . I sold trucks for many years . Those tow ratings can be somewhat optimistic especially when it comes to shorter wheelbase rigs .

It's bottomed out with the lighter vehicles. The Newport has the rear of the Durango the highest.

He moved three vehicles with that trailer.
The one I said should not be on there is the one that was on there when he needed to stop suddenly and forced another vehicle out of their lane.
Inexperience with using improper equipment will always show up when you need the proper equipment.

The brakes worked good on the U-Haul trailer that I rented. But I only rented one.

I know there's one person that day who would have rather you hired a transporter.
