Thats a nice trailer there... enjoy it.

 

I don't find any "img" box in my reply screen. I have "title" and "message". I would like to link to my photo in the gallery, I have copied the address, but I can't see a way to bring it over here.

 

Click the little icon on the "Reply to Thread" page just above where you are typing your post reply. It produces a pop-up window where you can insert the url address.

 

I had the same problem. I figured it out. Nobody will actually tell you what you need to do. So here it is:

Post your pictures into your gallery.
After it is posted go to your gallery
select your picture
SCROLL TO the BOTTOM OF THE PAGE
You will see a URL box with /IMG at the begining
Copy that URL (highlight using a mouse drag, then press [ctrl] c).
Paste the URL into your message (press [ctrl] v) when you need to.

Tada!

To view it, use the preview button, or simply post it. I hope this helps

 

Well boys I'm headed to take the jeep up to wheel so I'll take some pics of the whole set up, conneced, unlike the one in my gallery. Is it alright with everyone if it's not of a 5ver? I'll say at least some day I want a 5ver, but I gotta get married first then con her into buyin one

 

Is that really legal to pull that much weight? You must be over the legal limit for that truck. Have you every measured how long it would be with both those trailers? I just can't see it being legal. Im surprised you can even make turns in a normal neighborhood. Anyway that must make you nervous when pulling that much... It looks great though!

Here is a few shots of the new truck after getting home from a good weekend of camping over labor day truck pulls like no other hardly new it was back there not saying that it is a horribly heavy trailer but with my old truck it was like pulling a semi trailer with a toyota sr5

Not a good pic but here is mine. The camper is a rental. Some day I will break down and buy my own camper or toy hauler.

The antenna mast Supports a Antenna for a Wireless High-speed Internet service that is Run by some good friends. They let me use their Lot to do the Axel work. They own a 1983 (Chevy) Diesel Motor-home and we exchange Labor, after all what are Friends for? The Guy Welding is also a Camping friend who is a Union Pipe fitter with a Power Stroke and a 5th wheel. They all have Dodge Envy.Ha Ha Ha Ha

 

He is 4 inches to long. He has not been to the scales yet. We did some estimations and think it is in the 18k - 20K range. The rig does pull quite nice. He played with the load in the second trailer a little. He now puts atvs in the front of the momos. Seems to pull better. He only tows at 60 as do I. He can keep up with me. I can out pull him slightly up a steep hill. We are both Stock, with exeption to I have exhaust.

 

18-29k should not be a problem. I have wheiged that once this year on a trip to Colorado. I had 6 people in the truck and a 24 foot enclosed trailer with 6 utility machines and all the gear we needed to survive a week in the mountains. We wet across the scale at the local elevator on the way out and we where rite over 19000#. Pulled it great threw the mountains. Went west out of Denver and climbed up to the continental divide at 75-80 mph in 5th gear and down the back side at about 35-40 in 4th gear. i would not wory abought beeing 4 inches over length. If it realy bothers him he could shorten the toung a little. It does look odd though seeing that big of a trailer behind a camper.
