How much does your rear end sag with that trailer hooked up? I'd love to try and pull that around, see how my truck would do on 37's.

Where did you get that steering wheel and how much? I remember I saw a whole wheel a while back going for like 300 smackers.

Got from this guy on ebay, He only makes a few at a time so I emailed him and told him to let me know when one was available, he was super nice, very professional, cost wise was $190.00 plus a refundable core charge.

About 1-2 inches at the most, I have the Equalizer hitch and it does wonders for sag and sway. Here is a pic hooked up to my old trailer, an 06 model that was to heavy for my truck 7400 lbs tongue weight of around 980lbs.

Here is just the truck hooked up, very little difference front to back.


Here is the whole setup.


Truck with new lighter trailer only a 800 lb tongue weight. total weigth of 5900 lbs empty.
