Ok, heres the scoop. I am looking into getting a different tow rig. I have been tossing around ideas and would like to have a tow rig that I can also trailride with. For towing I will be hauling an 18' car trailer with brakes on one axle, with a tube chassis rock crawler on top. I am guessing 5-6K
I am tempted by finding a 93-94 80 Series and using this for tow duties (under 10 times a year) and light trailriding. This would not be a DD.
So what do you guys think, is the 80 up for the task? And if so is there any mods that would be needed/avoided. Example is a weight dist hitch a must, will larger tires and 2.5 lift be bad for towing?
Thanks in advance
