This was one of my favorites. My friend has a jacked up 1998 Suburban 4/4 on 33" tires. He was stuck in the mud to his differentials. I left some slack in the tow strap and "popped him out of the holes he dug for himself. Dangerous, I know, but that suburban was plucked like a nose hair.

My 88 has pulled a small load of scrap metal, that's it. Only had it since May 20th.

My 83 has Grossed 11,600lbs hauling construction debris to the dump. She has been over 10,000lbs at least half a dozen times. She regularly pulls an 1,100lb(empty) trailer loaded with scrap metal or construction debris, that's the blunt of what it pulls.

No pictures, sorry.

I have a 26' Bennington I/O Pontoon boat. I have pulled it with my SWB from the storage to the ramp, about 1 1/2 miles. It was a handfull. Putting it in the water wasn't too bad, but it spun the tires bad on the ramp trying to pull it out. Only did that once. I need an old 4wd square to leave at the lake just to pull that thing around.

The trailer didn't have very much tongue weight and with the car positioned just barely forward of the center of the trailer axles, it towed just fine!

my 11k gvwr 33' camper last week. maiden voyage for the truck. I know it looks light in the front end, but it has brand new HD 6 inch front springs in it, and only 4 inch blocks in the rear with pretty new HD springpack. Trailer only squatted it about 2 inches. No WD bars.

Traded it for the CC dually.

I wanted a CC for a while (but not a dually); I just didn't want to pay for a newer truck & really wanted a square so I would have a 60-66, 67-72, & a 73-87 still. All the CC single wheel trucks I had found were rough (except lolife99's, but he was a long way from me). The dually was in very nice shape so it was a good trade for both of us.
