What have you towed lately

[Erik the Awful]

Sketchy as hell! I towed a C3500 home with a C1500 stepside that apparently has a leaf removed from each spring pack. Check that rear squat, the hitch was about 4" off the ground. I'm seriously loving my Vortec heads and Lunati cam - the motor had plenty of power and never went above 185°F. The JB5 brakes? Not so much. Fortunately, I got the C3500 for free, and my plan is for it to take the place of the Stepside as a tow pig.

Is that silver 2 tone or the god awful white paint that doesn't stick worth a ****?

Lately, with my hobby wrecker, I towed this:

Couldn't even feel it back there!

The truck was a Regency Conversion truck. It has that "sweet" '80s paint job, the Centerline Convo Pros, wood trim, and a lighted overhead console, but the running boards are long gone. The white paint is in terrible shape, but the silver paint stuck pretty well.

^ I hope you had a dually for that load!

Towed a dump trailer, prior to having my brake controller installed. Kept it light with only brush. The trailer weighs about 4000lbs empty. Honestly the truck didn't even know it was back there. Drove fine, with a little squat in the rear, not contacting the overload spring yet.

Brake controller is installed, and the trailer is full of dirt, we'll see how overloaded I am when I go across the scale at the dump tomorrow.

Tried not to have a massive accident towing my 89 back home with my Tahoe that has no trailer brakes. I had to after my driveshaft blew out, guess that’s what I get for trying to do burnouts.

Did more dump runs today with dirt and rocks from the yard. I loaded the trailer last night, and then of course it rained all night. Crossed the scale today at about 20k. Oops. Load was about 8500+4000 for the trailer, so almost 13k. Max tow capacity is 10k. Truck did fine, I really didn't think it was that heavy. The 5 other loads I did today I tried to keep them around 9k total between the trailer and load.
