Late in June my wife, daughter and I will be heading south to TX from PA. We have four cars three drivers. I thought real simple, tow one car with another,...
On first guess the MN12 t'bird isn't going to be close, but I really don't know. How about the old fox t'bird (think turbocoupe)? Same basic chassis as the...
I'm in the process of rebuilding the new hitch on my 2004 Freestar. It's rated for 3,000# and 300# tongue weight, and has a 1 1/4" receiver. I need to carry a...
Dan, here's a link.. http://www.autoanything.com/towing/61A3389A0A0.aspx?kc=ffproduct&from_search=1 also have you tried Ford? Also, what about biting the...
Yes, Dennis brings up a valid point. Even if you show up with a Class 2 hitch on your Mustang, they will ask you at the store what you plan to tow on their...
... U-Haul is run by a herd of flaming jerks !! I can recall showing up at one of their outlets wanting to reserve an 6 x 12 double axle box trailer--to tow...
I'll have to look at their web site but I think I remember the site specifically talking about switching vehicles after picking up the dolly - this was a...
Drmyf, Yeh, I saw this web site and about 20 more. Bottom line, the tow vehicle needs to be a certain percent heavier than the unit being towed (at least it ...
Dan, there is just no easy way to move, lol. When we moved form Huntsville, Alabammy to Nevada, I rented a 26 ft Uhaul truck and a car trailer. I filled that...
Dual exhaust is the issue on the GT. But I didn't see any that were Class II. Got a link? Most of the hitches I saw for the Mustang were a goofy bolt-on...
I'm thinking this isn't rocket science... http://www.etrailer.com/pc-COMBO~E-912.htm Here's a store-bought Class II receiver. All I have to do is come up with...
You can get the same thing at Harbor Freight for about $15. My suggestion is to get a 2" receiver because most of life uses it instead of the small one. Most...

Gotta love Harbor Freight! Not too far from my house. Thanks for the suggestion. Dan Nicoson From: jyturbo@yahoogroups.com [mailto:jyturbo@yahoogroups.com]...
Let me guess, electronic/computer industry? It 's the closest thing to the land of fruits and nuts (California mind set) Texas has. When? Joe List Lurker in...
That's all fine and nice in theory, but it won't work with uhaul in practice. They're not going to care what class hitch you have on the vehicle, even if it...
Mark, I'm sure you are right. I will call them before going to all that trouble. I also may need to see if anyone else rents a similar dolly around here. ...
Joe, Used equipment, food industry. I can basically do it from anywhere that has a good internet connection and is near a large airport. My wife is the nut....
Why not just rent a uhaul truck and dolly? Then just have your buddy drive the truck down and fly him back home. You could also look into a loading dock and...
That's one of the good reasons I built my own trailer. I've carried all kinds of things and up to 5 tons of pulpwood on it and pulled it with a 1/2 ton Chevy...
Would buying a used dolly be a consideration? I bought mine three years ago for $250 from a gentleman that had enough of the full time rv lifestyle. Was in...
Well, the really surprising thing about Austin is traffic. It’s horrendous. Be careful about where you live versus where you want to go to. If you need ...
I would pass on the 4.0L option. Yes, I have two. Easy to turbo using stock manifolds that flow rather well. Sucky heads, though. Three sets of blown head...
Im really leaning toward the 2.3T swap. More room, more bolt in-ish. The big issue seems to be finding a cheap enough truck that's ext. cab, 4x4 with a...
... with a manual trans. If you're in a hurry, don't wait for a stock 2.3L supercab. Ford built a few supercab 2.3L Rangers in 1986 but by '87 (thru present...
I was going to say, be careful on engine year versus chassis year. I think the whole emissions testing thing may get "testy" in the next few years with the...
