Re: Goin to Alabama
Looks like you ought to lift that hitch height about 6 inches before you go down the road. Front of your trailer is too low. That's pretty hard on your front trailer axle assembly and tires.
But, good luck on your trip and with your new boat. You gotta be pretty excited. Hope all goes smooth.

Re: Goin to Alabama
yea, she does look a little toungue heavy?
or is it the angle of the photo?
got an adjustable ball hieght drawbar?
I'm sure the duallie would mask alot of it, but it looks ripe for some sway in that photo, pushing the back end of the truck around. Especially braking
There's so many idiots out on the road
...only the very best handling setup will do.

Re: Goin to Alabama
OK, this is a rookie question so forgive me up front...
How do you tow that without a weight distributing hitch system? Total weight on that rig has got to be close to 12K lbs, right? Reason I'm asking is I'm trying to set my 3/4 ton van up to tow my 10K rig and everyone I've talked to locally says the only way to do it is with a WD hitch....
