I'll be able to tell you Monday how it does pulling the Jeep..This weekend will be it's maiden voyage.It's a 366 gas..I'm pretty sure I'll be wishing it was a 427 or 454..

maddhatter · 10-18-2007, 03:29 PM

We tow with a 71 F-250 or a 95 E-150

No one yet! Tranny is still holding fairly well right now. I have not tapped the fuel wire yet either to help keep the tranny going for a while.

fabricator · 11-01-2007, 01:35 AM

Lets throw it on my truck and we'll tap
the wire just to see the difference....

how much HP/torque does it have
with out the tap? you know?

From what I have read, Level 1 has no added fueling and it adds 40hp and 150 ft/lbs torque according to edge. When I get the YJ done and back on the road, I will probably tap it and hope for the best. If I blow the tranny then I will at least have something to drive until it gets a Heavy Duty replacement.

We finally got my tow rig done, so I thought I'd post some photos.

94Dodge Truggy · 12-07-2007, 09:21 PM

I was hoping that you would post up the pics. Turned out great looks like it was made like that from the factory. When you turn does the rear poke out in the adjacent lane?

wilson1010 · 12-07-2007, 09:51 PM

Thanks Scott. My buddy Lance welds like an artist.

The truck turns like a school bus with the back swinging out a little, but that air ride rear axle is really smooth. And, its quiet enough to talk on the cell phone going down the road.

I'm gonna load something up on it next Sat and head out unless its really messay and we will see how it does. Its set up to handle two rigs as long as one of them is a SWB. Of course that truggy would take up too much space to get a second rig on.

Aquaman · 12-08-2007, 12:11 AM

2001 3/4 Ton Suburban with an 8.1L. I don't pass up very many gas stations. But it tows like a dream and is super comfortable.

The dana 60's get yanked from the truggy this weekend and 19'' off the rear of the truggy. It will fit!

2001 F150 ext cab. 5.4 triton/auto. Works for me. Tow's good, but mileage towing sucks. About 9 under tow, 16.7 without.
