Tried searching but can't find anything relevant.
Anyone went full or almost full armored and towed heavy?
I bought a seafox 248 commander and wanted to tow it. I have my tundra fully heavy suspension to tow and it runs fine.
Wanted to tow with my land cruiser and the reason I ask is because the land cruiser and the tundra towing the boat with fishing gear, ice, people, etc exceeds the gvwr by several hundred pounds.
Both my 11 tundra and 16 land cruiser have heavy rear suspension. The cruiser has iron man cell foam pro with heavy rear springs. My tundra has added leafs, beefier shackles.
I know the fact check gear heads will say I'm driving very risky but I've towed my boat on my tundra for well over 2000 miles to fish in the gulf coast with no problems despite the 1295 gvwr sticker.
I gotta order a 4-5 inch drop hitch for the land cruiser because 2 and 3 that I bought wouldnt get under the boat trailer.
Boat with 107 gallon of fuel is about 5800 pounds before trailer and people etc. Trailer is double Axle.
Any input would be great because I plan on putting my arb skids and winch on soon and I know that affects weight. I think I would be fine but wanted your thoughts. Thanks in advance!
Picture of my lady and boat for attention! Haha.
