Bad Idea
I tried to tell scr8p that this was a bad idea, but he wouldn't listen. I think he, MelvinsArmy, and Badhoopty have been hanging out together again ...

Re: Bad Idea
that wasn't a bad idea. that's what i call an engineering marvel.
i still haven't installed the helper springs on the blazer yet, though.

Re: Bad Idea
Can you imagine seeing something like that rolling down the road?
I can't decide if I like the helper chains on the tailgate or the helper block in the receiver better.

Re: Bad Idea
i swear, that has to be one of the greatest pics i've ever seen. i love seeing creative people at work.
that thing must have quite a turning radius...... like the size of earth. since sitting straight, it looks like the camper is 6-8 inches away from the corners of the blazer's roof.
i know one thing. if it broke free while i was driving it, i'd pray it happened during acceleration and not deceleration.

Re: Bad Idea
Runaway trailers ain't fun, particularly when they're 10 times larger than the tow vehicle! LOL
Anyone wanna bet that the Blazer's only got a 4 banger under the hood?

Hey, we like to keep things "lively" if you know what I mean.

Re: Bad Idea
This looks like a few of my customers situations.
One of them brought in a "Trans slipping 4.2 V6 F150" As I was racking it, I noticed the 5th wheel and airbags on the rear leaf springs......
The rule is:
If you can hook it up, it should pull it....

Re: Bad Idea
From the looks of it, it's already loaded. Or maybe it was scr8p that was loaded when he thought attaching that thing to the Blazer was a good idea. He should have gone for the F150 that fordtransman was talking about.wyldbill wrote:is that what you guys will be showing up in for the next vintage nat's? woo hoo, party trailer!

Some people do not realize the enormity of physics. 4 woodscrews and a block of wood will surely have no problem with the forces of a 8,000 lb gooseneck trailer.
