That truck suspension only went down about 1 1/2 inches with that load on it and 10psi in the bags brought it right back to where it is unloaded height.


OH I see, Ok, that makes since now ! :smoke: I'm a duff sometimes !!.... OK All the time

I especially like the way they temporarily adjusted the front axle weight..

That Blazer was strait at one point too, but hey to each their own. Check out www.caterpillarmiller.com and take a look at the late 30s tow truck he races too.

I've got me a big ol serious duty hitch and front mounted hooks... What do you think I've pulled with either? So far... Nothing... lol. Everything I've needed to move around has fit in my bed. My bed has seen plenty of action *wink* but that's about it. But heck, I've not had my current truck for long so here is to hoping I use it more.

The guys I work with keep trying to talk me into pulling a 28 foot "pup" semi trailer with mine.

It has pulled a 48 foot Race trailer and a 32 foot horse trailer. The Rear has been beefed up and has been well over 12,000lbs since I have owned it. Sadly I dont have any pics of her pulling =(

I miss that red trailer, other than the fact it weighed 9K empty. I loved the electric/hydraulic four wheel disc brakes.
