(How can they make things for half the price - for starters, put twice as many cars on a car transporter). also saw the pics of a ef falcon towing a landcruiser that went badly wrong. Trailer Towing the Einstein way.... - Page 5 - PerformanceForumspics have unfortunatly been removed but hopfully they will resurface. (the land cruiser was tied down with string through the front wheel - seriously, string!!!!)I just got a 13x6 foot box trailer (biger than my ute) so I'll need to see what I can load up in that (on private property of course.

I have been known to keep telstra busy fixing un maintained phone lines.

Hemp rope about 32mm, lots of stretch so it's easier on the clutch. The tow rope gets hidden every time the safety chick comes anywhere near the workshop.Towed a vibrating roller with a D6 and had to get a 200hp tractor to keep the D6 straight, bloody steep road that one.
