Did that, still does it. I wonder if it has anything to do with the
M813A1 having lockers.

Any chance you could weigh the load as its set up and make some
adjustments to hte position of the Stuart on the trailer? Shift it
further back on the wheels or reverse it on? The mass of the weight
of the Stuart may be on the front half based on the thicker frontal
armor and gun mount.
