Thanks Mechanic and Bear: I was thinking of going with Pic #4.. my logic is as follows: Placing the "help" with the wrap towards each hanger (one in front and one towards the back) and having the equalizer there to do its job of relieving the stress and strain by shifting the load weight.
But Mechanic: Yes, that was my thought too- run up to the local trailer shop and taking a peek at their trailers on the lot to see "how they run them"
Thanks guys!
