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 !

I'm a duff sometimes !!.... OK All the time

86ktwenty · 09-06-2011, 08:20 PM

Don't have any of mine pulling, yet, but remembered this vid from youtube. Enjoy. http://youtu.be/rLlj4CPIvJs

DetroitDan · 09-06-2011, 09:17 PM

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

Rogue_Alphonse · 09-07-2011, 01:05 AM

An engine...

And I don't own either of these anymore. That was a fun 110 mile trip!

My vote for "the winner"...

I'll have to see if I can find the old Chevy commercial where the truck pulled a bunch of railroad boxcars....

That poor 67-72, I hate it when they use nicer trucks. Just find a rotted to hell truck, put a roll cage and an engine in it and your good to go.

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.

wyattglock · 09-13-2011, 05:38 PM

Here is my dually and 25 foot travel trailer when we were getting ready to go on the maiden voyage after the rebuild.

monte0185 · 09-13-2011, 10:40 PM

Thought for sure I had more pics of my GM's pulling stuff but this is all i can find.

05 suburban on 76 hour trip from memphis to kingman az and back. second is my caddy taking my truck to get painted.

kmyers · 09-13-2011, 10:56 PM

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 =(

88bagedntaged · 09-14-2011, 04:10 PM

Sorry no pics on the trailer But it pulled it home !!!

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