What Do You Tow?

Do THIS first, then scrap it!

I thought about it...it would take some work...some serious snake oil to get it running at least...has low compression on a cylinder and a hydraulic pump that decided its bearings would be better in powdered form than solid...we'll see.

Put the back wheels on a car dolly and tow it that way.

I want to try the ol car dolly trick but I'm pretty sure it would end horribly!

It worked awesome for us. We had to take it about 25 miles and we averaged about 20 to 25mph. Just take your time and you will be fine.

That might get tried...just need to figure out how to get the header off of it first. And need to see if the scrap yard that is 5 miles away will take it....might be a slow run in the early morning type deals

Hell 5 miles away I would pull it there with a tractor. Leave it the way it is and take it there.

Thanks bud.

Nope, I'm just moving it for a friend that bought it. It needs some body work, a few other things and he's going to daily drive it.

From my last vacation.
68.5 feet of fun. Truck did awesome on pulling her set the cruise at about 65 in OD and let her do the work. Really would like a 6sp for this truck thou as i always have this one hill that I have to stop at the bottom and then try to get up to speed and I'm alawys at the point where I'm in 3rd gear and the TC wont lock causing me to do 40mph up the hill. Other than that I'm a happy camper.:walkin::walkin:

One of just the Boat and the truck which how it is most the time.

First load with the new trailer. Took it to the scales to see how much the tractor weighted and my truck is a pig. Empty with a little less than 1/4 and nobody in it truck and trailer weighted 15580 and and loaded with the tractor 23580. Truck weighs about 8500 alone fueled up

I take it everywhere with me. I usually have my dirt bike on the back as well. With that and water puts me over 30,000. It has full hydraulics with auto level and auto satellite. Plus washer and dryer.

I mainly haul around the pulling truck but I also restore tractors on the side so I haul some of them around too

After the mudsling the other night. Had to represent the diesels. First pull with the new truck. Scaled in at 19800 at half tank. Rolled on with it.
