Another point if it's been sitting for 4 years. I'd have a grease gun with me. On the outside chance, it has the easy lube axles, so you can pump some grease into the axles before you take off

I tossed a grease gun in with the travel tools moments ago. We still need to get a three-ball hitch. 4Runner came with the tow package, and thus has a 7-pin flat socket already. Assuming that's what's on the Puma.

3 ball = zero height adjustment, you thinking that's gonna work good?

Toyota takes 'em out if gear when the oil gets hot enough.put a trans temp sticker on the trans to prevent over heating

V8, AWD, silver, cloth interior, aftermarket head unit, booster seats for the kiddos, working AC, etc.
Anything I need to provide to assure that I'll be towing this anyway?

Probably 5x4.5 pattern wheels and I'd guess ez lube spindles so the grease gun is a good call.
JNHEscher

Indeed. I looked up the Lipperts and came up with 5x4.5 on those as well. I'd still like to know the exact model. Other than that, fairly good to go. Maybe a quick hop to a wally world or auto parts for a ball and/or harness adapter.
Are they pulling it with the same exact vehicle? 🤔

From what little info I've gotten, it almost sounds like it. I'll figger out the ball sitiation when we get there.

Gotta assume its gonna sag the 4 runner quite a bit
CarterKraft
Red Skull Member
RV hitch is usually mounted fairly high on top of the tongue, the runner is gonna sag which will make for not ideal situation

Assumption is there. Gonna gauge it when we get there.

you'll be fine with a weight distribution hitch
JNHEscher
Red Skull Member
It's 5k dry weight. Never used or needed WD hitch.

He went the zero braking axle route.

Personally, what I’ve had a lot of success with is using something that says “F-350” or “Kenworth” on the side of it. That way when the bearings are fried you can use the 350 to shove the travel trailer onto the lowboy behind the Kenworth.

If only that was the plan

You'll be awake.
Ever pulled an RV before? They're not balanced for shit. And to make it more fun next time you'll have water, and it'll be on one side of the axles going out and the other side coming back.
My bumper pull 18' camper is about 8k full of water. I still prefer the weight distributing hitch on my crew cab long box 3500s.
