Yep them side unloads are fun . I have dropped two old cable shovels off the side one while tryen to load and one while unloading on a frosty deck , while backing into a oil well lease road one time to unload a dozer as i was backing in off a narrow side road when the trailer tires were dead over the 4 foot culvert the culvert collapsed on the left side putting the trailer on about a thirty drgree lean and the frame on the road and the gooseneck on the drive tires , with noway to get a wrecker in the only thing to do is back the dozer off the trailer and use it to pick up the trailer and shove it out . So up in the seat and start to back it off nice and slow , was going really well till it just slid off down into the ditch leaving me and the dozer at about a 45-50 degree angle with one track in the ditch and one still on the trailer , now what and with about fifteen people all standing there with the shocked look on there faces i told one of them to get into the cab and steer and when he did i pulled the left steering clutch back and put the dozer in reverse and just as nice as up pleased the right track walked the truck and trailer out . Now to get the dozer out of the ditch with a little wiggling i got it turned and just cut me a ramp up and out . and i had ramps kick out while unloading a combine so i know how you feel.
