New Tow rig and Trailer

[Shamb]

My new tow rig and new trailer all setup ready to go.

99 Chevy Tahoe, Vortec 350, 6" Procrap lift and some BFG AT's... not to shabby.. and a new 16' trailer to haul my toy with

Nice! How's it tow with that short wheel base?

You do realize i hate you now?  Nice find though!  time to cut the toy up.

those tahoes pull really well.  I've pulled my truck on a 20footer using my dads tahoe, and we barely noticed the trailer

It's all because of you Brad, 

Last time we were up at the Con sitting at GK talking about trailers and tow rigs.. kinda got me thinking..

I've wanted a trailer and tow rig for awhile and my girls been wanting a Tahoe.. so i just combined the two and.... 

Yea i dropped the trailer on the Tahoe the other day after I wired it all up and it didn't even feel like the trailer was on there but I have yet to take it on a long ride to see how it does..

On a diff note, does ANYONE know where the Brake relay switch is on the brake pedal for the lights???  I got ONE more wire to hook up on my brake control in the cab but I can't find that relay for the life of me.

ANY HELP!?!?

Thats the same engine i have in my GMC.  It should pull pretty good.  You truck should be a tad bit lighter then mine too so that will help.  How much did you pick the trailor up for?  I should be in the market for one early next year.

brand new with electric trailer brakes all wired up ready to go. 16ft x 78" = $1805 out the door.

not to bad for a brand new trailer I suppose... been buying trailers from this guy for years and he does good quality work.

did some work on the rig today, pulled the front shackles off, drilled new holes for the body mounts/moved them inward and cut the body mount off.. no rubbage!

next weekend i'll start with the fender cutting, was gonna get the interior cage but if i can save some $$$ i'll wait.

Coming soon 30 spline Longs, interior cage and reconfig on the rear shackle angle.. maybe put in some revolvers.

Hey, where did you pick the trailer up at?  I am priving them right now and that price is pretty good cmpared to what i have seen.

Awesome... Ive been trying to figure out where the heck that was because I didnt remember it really when I drove thru there.

I was looking at the MCR Pics thread and found some pics of me on Gate Keeper ( ) and other places. I cant wait to go on rubicon and fordyce again.

There are like 3 consecutive hills that i call Walker Hill.  I never new which one was actually called walker.  that hill is one of them.  That spot get pretty intresting when people try to roll it.  I have gotten it on 3 tires many times going up it
