With a couple of comments made about the e-brake, there's a point I would like to make. I don't know what chassis that is or what e-brake design is but, if it has a drive shaft e-brake, then there is NO functional e-brake as it sets there on the driveway.
If the chassis has the drum type e-brake which is usually located inside the rotors, then the duals setting on the ground offer some resistance to rolling.
All this is assumed the e-brake is set "ON".

And some think using the levelers to fix the flat is dangerous ?
7 miles is nothing, I have ran 20 miles with a flat on one dual and had it fixed and carried on many times without any issues. You just slow down.

That tree in the background is infested with the ash borer, it's a hazard waiting to happen. It should be cut down before it falls down and hurts somebody!

He should have cut the bolt holding hitch off, it's going to get him hung up

yep needs to cut off the extra threads, otherwise the articulation of the double pivot may not work correct

He only inserted the bolt upside down. Should have inserted from the bottom then the threads would have pointed up with no issues!
