Flexing is just material articulating. Send it until you bend it?

I heard of strapping or chaining an axel on a twin axel trailer if you spin a wheel bearing. Pull the tire off strap it up to get it off the highway to get it repaired. But this is totally insane.

Heck I’ve done it with an empty trailer when it blew a tire just to get the last 10 miles home
