Is it just me, or does the paint chips on the picture of the Hyd
cylinder and linkage, look like the metal there buckled at some point?

It appears to me the axle has an extreme advantage over the cylinder and the
whole stroke of the cylinder is not used. The small bolt above the clevis on
the cylinder must be the pin that locks the mechanism for travel. I think
there is a good reason the trailer is for sale.

I do not see how it can be locked at all?

Looks like a repair. If you look a bit further to the right you'll see
what looks like a weld bead on the same part.I would imagine that you
can't put to much weight in that trailer.
