that better not be for hauling the truck.

Super Chevy · 07-09-2002, 11:56 PM

Nice! ,what size is that,what brakes you choose, looks good

REPO1 · 07-10-2002, 12:01 AM

Heh heh heh, not for hauling the truck.

For use behind the truck, hauling my car to the track.

I bought it used, it has 5200 lb axles under it, instead of the 3500 lb ones usually found on car trailers. Also it has a full size battery instead of a tiny one for the brakes. There are brakes on all 4 wheels as well.

I have always wanted one, and the deal came along that I couldn't pass up. Now I can haul more parts!

my step dad has the identical trailer, but it is usually covered with stucco or stacked 20 feethight with ladders and planks and crap...:p

Nice!

Does it have a winch yet?

REPO1 · 07-10-2002, 08:03 PM

No winch yet.

Got to recover from the cost of the trailer first. My pocket book is a bit sore now.

One day maybe. Not sure if it will get an actual electric winch, maybe just a crank style for the amount the trailer will actually get used.

By that do you mean what car do I plan on hauling? If so, I race my '97 Z28 at the dragstrip when I can find the time. I got a 383 stroker, running 11.8:1 compression. Xtreme 236/242 cam with 580 lift.

All the usual bolt-ons, including a 250 shot of NOS.
