Everyone thanks for the help, Jason I am thinking if I combine the weight of your trailer and two M105s I will be over my tow capacity. I am going down to the cabin Monday and do some measuring, I think if I can get the body of the second 105 high enough to clear the bed rail of the carrying...
They are pretty flexible since I am showing good faith on picking them up, still a little mean though! I am heading down this Tuesday and Thursday ,of next week, they really try to push you through so I am going to have to be quick on pulling the tires and have the dunnage ready to mount in...
I have six more 105s to haul from Hooks 520 miles round trip, don't mind one at a time for the specialty/covered ones but if I pull the wheels off one and put a couple of parallel 8x8s for the hubs to sit on can I stack one 105 in the bed inside another 105 and cut my towing in half? All of...
If you could control the air brakes the trailer would not be a bad pull, the Armada had no problem towing the weight but the top end speed/sway and stopping was the draw back. I think with the way the trailer is set up the sway is always going to be a problem at speed in anything less than a...
I have only driven my stock 818 without a load but at 2200 RPM my max I am running 52 MPH. I head to Little Rock to pick up a box trailer next week, I will see how it goes with a light load.

I have never been allowed more than a couple of cars lengths from the truck in the dozen or so times I have been there, I think your experience was rare!

You should have no problem with your rig, I pulled mine home with a Armada, a raised pintal hitch is a must for it to ride level, or close to level.

I have been to Hooks many times and this is the first time my item has been missing, they are normally very careful about the paperwork and not letting people just wander around the property. Now they have told me one thing on the phone and the truth turns out to be something completely...
Here is a shot of the trailer I won, it was clearly marked and the only one with tool boxes still attached, who ever got it knew it was not his trailer, I just thought it was tan.

No, each trailer had an individual photo or three, the lot number was in large white numbers on the trailer bed or landing leg, clear to see in each photo. There were only about eight or so flatbed trailers up for bid. I think mine was the only one with the two tool boxes still attached, i...
I think I came out better for the first time on a GL deal, the trailer I won, had the tool boxes but no spare tire and you could tell from the photos it was a little scuffed up and tan! This trailer is in premo condition, one reflector is crushed and the rest as it should be. Even with me...
I really like the trailer and it will be a great addition to the wrecker, with all the predrilled holes in the trailer bed I may set it up with the "new" compressor, along with making a quick mount for a gen. set and welder along with a tool box I will be ready for anything! I have to try...
The trailer ID tag shows 352lbs on the tongue, it felt like a good deal more weight than that. I used one of the leg jacks to raise the lunette, one was enough since my drivers side front leg will not roll down for some reason?
