If Scott can pull the club trailer with his suburban it and Ed has pulled it with his truck I would think Phil's new truck could pull it as well.
No one else has said they could pull it to San Antonio. At this point we may have to cancel.

Yes, the trailer is in the heavy duty range for tongue weight now. I can tow 9000 lbs but only 500lbs tongue weight. I could probably go a little heavier with stiffer tires. Scott was looking into a weight distributing hitch to get some of the weight off the hitch but I don't know what he found.

Arghh…Max tongue weight on mine is 1130 at the receiver, though I can supposedly tow up to 7700 lbs.That’s the “Max” towing package on ½ ton trucks from them.Maybe I should have bought a bigger truck? LWith that 1500 lb. tongue weight, that definitely says ¾ ton or better.Sorry sirs.PhilFrom: ttat-members-owner@aoot.com [mailto:ttat-members-owner@aoot.com] On Behalf Of rbd3985@aol.com

Subject: Re: Tinplate Trackers of Austin Texas - Exhibitor Registration (Layout)I believe Scott said the tongue weight was 1500 lbs and the total weight was 6000lbs. It is a tandem axle 7x14 and has brakes. Scott and Russell can tell you more as they have pulled it many times.

Subject: RE: Tinplate Trackers of Austin Texas - Exhibitor Registration (Layout)I may be able to pull the trailer. However, besides needing a 2-5/16 ball, I don’t know the overall trailer tongue weight, weight, length, preferred tongue height, etc.Just took delivery of a new Ford F150 4x4 truck last Saturday, and I wanted to make sure I wouldn’t overload it before offering.Let me know,
