Pics of me towing stuff

Marketplace obsession got me a good one. Picked up a crawler hauler yesterday. Trails West 3 horse slant converted to a 14’ flatbed. Loaded up and ran up to the scales today.

Thats pretty sweet. Horse trailers are usually narrow, so I know trying to fit a rig in, is pretty much no happening. Flat bed is a sweet approach though.

Care to post how much you paid?

Don't think I have ever seen a camper/horse trailer with the doors opposite of the curb.

Some friends have a 3 horse slant w/ living quarters they haul their RZR in. It's tight but they make it work. the angled wall makes it a little more cramped in the living quarters but the trailer is built much heavier than a regular toyhauler/rv.

a buddy has a race trailer that the doors are on the opposite side of an rv ?? i think its featherlite brand
 
Blew my tranny.....in the Outback. With the Fummins down, had to borrow a friends "Bling Bling GMC" to drop it all off. Plow on made for a good swing when turning. Dogs the best copilot...not helpful with directions though (if you look close you can see her in the passenger seat of the gas station pic).

Empty 40 footer, my buddy with the dually was buying it

the guy with the landoll was a crybaby/ retard, didn't think he could make the turns, even though I had another hauled from next to it, the week before

We pulled it sideways, then down the driveway and parked it on the dirt road for the semi. The dodge had plenty of torque, but got to hopping in the soft stuff on highway tires, I have plenty of traction and power, but respect my ifs...


With him chained to the box, and a strap between us, it went pretty smooth

Dumb load today for me, couldn’t fit the lowbed anywhere near the shop this was going to. Thankfully was no highway and just a county road. Truck is way heavier than it looks, and should of loaded it the other direction but the duals wouldn’t fit between the fenders. Made it tho, the 320k mile tow rig is not what it was in 2005….. 😂
 
Poor F150 again.

Last time I had the 97 on a scale it was close to 9k lbs with all 3 tanks full. Stock rear 18g, aftermarket front 40g and 100g steel transfer tank. I had to go by the dump and asked about pulling on the scale, but she said no, can not do that :laughing: pretty sure she's new. :homer:

I plan on installing a 2.5" hitch receiver on the Bronco in order to properly use a 2" hitch box extension.

I want to tow my HMMWV trailer behind the Bronco/camper.

You should learn "backdrop assessment":flipoff2:
If you mean where I take the pics; I don't venture out beyond town for fear of breaking down.:laughing::homer:
I've spent the last two years replacing old/worn out parts, moving and not, getting the Bronco in shape.

On the 1st; I'm getting newer HMMWV tires for the front axle.
Once that happens; I'll be much more confident to go places beyond town.
 
I'm optimistic this will hold together for 4 days :rasta: tarps hide many sins.

The truck is on a hill and the trailer is mostly on flat

if you have to do a 4 day trip like that again, might be worth looking into shrink wrap... like wha tthe do to cover boats in the off season. shrinks down real tight and can take a trip down the highway no problem.

shrink wrapped direct tot trailer would hardly need any straps:eek:
 
Hopefully I have enough truck and trailer for this beast :laughing:

2400 lbs, and will go through a ~36" gate :laughing:

Should fit between the house and fence a lot better than the 7 ton machine we had.
 
ANY machine will go through a 36" gate.






:flipoff2:

You mean like crash through? I mean sure :laughing:

He yard is all soft and there is a bunch of shit in the way. The bigger one would havae barely fit between the fence and house, I probably would have had to just use the pivot boom instead of spinning to toss dirt :laughing:
 
So that thing actually sucks into 30" wide :laughing:

Had to take it back like a half mile and didn't want to unchaim and unload the Kubota. So they got to snuggle up :laughing:
