Expert Reply:
Having the mounting bracket on the top or the bottom of the frame of your trailer when you install the # CE27600 would not matter in terms of strength. Either configuration would be just as strong. It more or less comes down to which height you would prefer. With it underneath the frame it will sit a little bit lower and vice versa.
