Other than stopping power for two trucks?
I pull my bass boat with mine with no problems, don't think it's as heavy as our trucks though.

Re: hidden hitch and tow dolly for my 67 C10
That would be my only concern.Stopping ! If you upgraded the brakes might be ok. My '67 with non power 4wheel drum brakes is a handfull when I pull a trailer. I don't have the electric brake controller either, I should look into one

Re: hidden hitch and tow dolly for my 67 C10
Personally, I'm amazed that the world is convinced that you need a 1ton dully diesel to pull a 10' John boat. I grew up in a time when if you needed to pull something you just hooked to it and took off, if you had an Impala or a 3/4 ton pickup. Your truck will pull another truck on a car dolly just fine, that being said and you being in Virginia, just stay out of the mountains.

I cut up and welded up a drawtite hitch (was free) and as previously stated with picture this time. It stopped like a starvin' dog goin' for a food bowl. Maybe i need to start a thread on good drum brakes.In need of ,obviously we used them back then.Mine are cleaning out my undie drawer!!
