6" of lift and 35" tires. Yeah that's what they said, I just liked the idea of the storage and better weight distribution.

Yep, LPE is nice, but overpriced if you ask me. I'll let you know how it works, I'm hoping it will solve the belt slip issue that us Maggie guys are plagued with.

Ah, yeah, that'll F you up. That's why I just did a 2" kit with air bags in the back. As for the storage, we don't bring that much with us. Some chairs, cooler, and a tool box, that's about it

Yeah, looks good doin it though

Packing light is probably easier anyways, less to unpack when I get back from a trip. Yours is a Pace, no?

Yeah, we got a Pace. It isnt as fancy as yours. :(Haven't towed it yet. Needed to get a new coupler with a short bed truck.

The joys of the short bed

that was the other limiting factor on my truck. What truck are you using?

Supercharged SS · 02-22-2013, 07:31 PM

2010 Silverado HD with a Gale Banks tuned Duramax. It towed my 44' with no problems all over the place. That weighed 14k. The 48' weighs 16k. Both being loaded weights.

I needed a 9" offset coupler so I'd have a decent turning radius. We'll prob step into something bigger if we continue to see 20+ track trips a year. Time will tell.

Nice setup! Mine's an 06 Dodge, Smarty tuned here. I don't have any real good pics of my setup, waiting on parts to finish it all up. Gonna go dually?

Nope. If we go with anything it'll be a little Freightliner or Kodiak. Might as well do it right. Make it a dedicated tow vehicle. Just need to do a lot if racing to justify the cost.

I don't have many good pics yet either. Still waiting to get it all dialed in. Should be soon.

That one long setup! These trucks are more complicated than the Camaros

Thankfully the truck has been perfect. Knock on wood.

. Yeah,when hooked up its pretty long. The only hard part is making sure you fuel up at a truck stop otherwise you're disconnecting the trailer on the side of the road. With triple 7000# torsion axles I'm told it tows like a dream. Time will tell. Going through New York City will still be a mother fu#*er!!

Supercharged SS · 02-22-2013, 08:09 PM

Atco opens tomorrow, although we will be in the middle of a Nor Easter. I still waiting on the rear wheels and different springs for the Pfadt shocks. Hopefully soon it'll be done!

2SS45th · 02-22-2013, 08:15 PM

Yeah it will be! NYC ain't got time for that

Supercharged SS · 02-26-2013, 05:13 PM

Ummmm, very unhappy with the updating here. Seems to be as slow as your car!

Can you please hire an update assistance or sub the job out please.
