these are some healthy midsize trucks....its nice to know that its got the ballz to tow all that

 

ya, motor wise it does fine, I could pull the trailer out of a light with traffic, its suspetion wise is where it lacks

 

i guess we need to start beefing up the rear leafs and rear suspension then

 

I want to put airbags on my rear axle to help with weight or do add a leaf to it. then the front needs the obvious shocks

 

ya, i tow a lot of crap (mostly boats)...when im not doin it at my dads dealership, im usually doin it for recreation....ive been able to handle everything real well...but like stated, the place that lacks is the suspension....i was thinking about overload springs...anyone know where i can get some for our trucks?

talkin about tis, i got a new ball mount and ball yesterday...i know the ball will take abuse, but i decided to get a stainless ball mount and ball.....i can always clean them up for when im not pullin anything (but might in the next day or so), and just want a nice clean truck....

 

ya, my luck with the stainless ones hasent been good, the ball gets ugly from use. might clean up with some mag polish though.

 

They develop a decnt layer of rust pretty fast around here.

 

ya, the ball mount stays pretty good, but i know what you mean about the ball. but i take it on and off at least 2-3 x's /week....if i know im not gunna use it, i put on the ram head light i have (old style, i hate the new ones)....just wipe the greese off the ball and if it needs, rub a lil chrome polish...takes 2 minutes and keeps it nice...my old mount was just old and i decided to keep it as a "spare" in the shop....we have all sizes of dif *****, all are stainless....most are more than5 years old and look pretty new....gets more use than you could imagine too...its just, whos going to take the extra 2 mins? i am

 

Yeah, we do. I tried to pull our generator (around 6000 lbs) before I left on vacation and it just had too much tongue weight. I could move it okay, but the sag was unbelievable. Some rear suspension help would be great.

We don't clean any of our ***** on the hitches at the church...some of them are pretty gross...I think they were stainless at one time, but, um, they're pretty stained anymore. Mostly covered in dirt from the farm and grease. I'll probably clean up the weight distribution setup before I use it for a week next month.

 

whats weight distribution really? iv head about it...i just thought it was the act of making sure the weight in the trailer (ex car, generator, etc) is equaly balanced on the center of the trailer wheels....(not too much forward from the wheels or behind it)
