Originally written by stanger92 on 2006-09-23 4:13 PM I have a 2006 3/4 HD GMC with the duramax and right now I am pulling a 4 horse slant exiss w/ unfinished 4ft quarters. looking to buy a trailer with larger finished lq's. how big could I go without buying a dually? I don't like them at all, but if absolutely necessary I will buy one. If I could get by with my truck I would be much happier. Won't be doing any cross country or anything, just weekend runs and at the most 8 hour drive a couple times a year. Usually within 100 miles of home. also was thinking about a 6" suspension lift for my truck. Would this effect the pulling too much? Hello Stanger... Welcome to the forum. The 6" lift will be detrimental to towing. You either lose truck/trailer clearance or you overload the trailer's rear axle. The rest of your question is simple. Do not exceed the GCVWR or rear axle ratings of your truck. Those two pieces of hard information are worth more than a hundred opinions of "It'll handle it" from internet haulers or parking lot cowboys |
