After 2000 miles on my new purchased 2014 covered wagon trailer, i was approached by a tech at a gas station.saw that my shackles were not set right.at first the mechanic who worked at a tire auto and rv repair saw it and offered to fix the problem but could not since it was in his words on the receipt "equalizer straps not tightened correctly"and he could not tighten them because the manufacture welded the nuts to the bolts.i've contacted covered wagon trailers and they have not offered to fix the problem and i'm concerned they don't care.i've taken my equalizer and shackles to 3 places and all 3 said its not properly installed and could cause problems.
