To be able to move the weight closer to the back. With the quad facing front to back the weight is spread out more towards the front. With the quad sideways you are placing more weight on the back, because the quad is much narrower than it is long. With this set up you could move the front quad back more as well.
AHHHHH, i see said the blind man. You know. I guess i could scooch it back a little. I will play with it next time i load it and take some pics. The trailer is 12' long. I have about 10 inches or so that i normally leave between the atvs and the atv to back ramp gate. I can def start pushing all that towards the aft gate. Good thinking.

that trailer isn't a very heavy load but a lot of sway is caused by insufficient tongue weight. just play around with it and you'll fine a sweet spot.

Careful, the more load toward the rear of the trailer, the more sway will be induced.
The "sweet spot" for a heavy load is typical directly over the trailer axle(s).
