Wired up my 7pin. Hopefully a rock won't find it hiding behind the 4x4 labs bumper..
Maybe borrow some 285's for the trip up

Dont know if i will take the zuk yet. Thought the trailer was coming after the crawl.
I towed the zuk up to HS before with this 80 and 315s . It was interesting.

I see a second set of wheels and tires in your future.

yeah no doubt. I don't wheel the 80 as hard as i used to now that i have the zuk linked in the rear.
but I may go down to 315s. With 4.88s i don't know how small of a tire i can go to without the inline 6 screaming at me on the highway. I believe Woody has 4.88s and 315s and he said it was fine. kinda wish i stayed with the 4.10s since it does see more highway than dirt lately.

Just drop it in D and take it slow
Nolen is right. Just skip the overdrive and take your time. Bring it!

Hard for me not to let my foot get heavy ; )
Changed the oil and baselined the liquids. probably need to add some transmission fluid to have all the squirrels to get angry. David came over and helped me change some rad hoses. I will see if i can get the passenger seat in there. If i can't she may need to ride bitch.
I will take her for a spin tomorrow and see how she runs. If she runs good i may load her up and see how the 80 likes the zuk back there.

Good. I need to look at a few things in it and Clutchee's buggy.

Ok so i decided that the weight distributing (WD ) hitch is a little to high and pitches the trailer at an angle and puts more weight on the rear most trailer axles. Solution: i will look for a drop hitch to lower the WD hitch.
Well i found one and to get the hitch low you need a pretty long drop to allow the hitch to ride at a certain height...
I think my measurements may have been off a little LOL
Anyone need any land plowed ?
