I've pulled 16k trailers with the 8.1 and the only problem was stopping! The trailer brakes sucked and were not up to the task. Otherwise a solid motor. I am a duramax owner and I love towing with it because I get 16mpg pulling the jeep and it has a turbine brake which really makes a big...

Gpn is my call on df. I've seen you around. Right on.

Re: Re: What are you towing with? Nice ride. Spend any time on duramaxforum? I've got an lbz with efi from rob. Love my pickup. Here is my baby. And yes that is a 3/4 ton Cummins on the trailer.

Why not just stitch? A stitch weld has less HAZ. A big long continuous weld, even if you let it completely cool between each small weld, will have a continuous HAZ. How is that a good thing? The artec truss connection to the tube is essentially a stitch because of the gaps. So no worries there.

WTF is going at team NAXJA?!

If you are early riser then mesa arch at sunrise at island in the sky is really neat. Bring a thermos of coffee and a couple chairs.

Everyone keeps mentioning prodigy controllers... get one! They are awesome and can really help with trailer control. Also brakes on both axles is nice but properly functioning brakes on one axle will work fine. If you can get something with torsion axles like dexter tor-flex's then you will be...

I wouldn't worry about the extra weight or the weight distributing hitch. A balanced load will go a long ways. An 18' trailer is a good length if you are just going to pull the jeep. Follow the tow vehicle specs. Don't exceed tongue weight rating. Having a scale to weigh things is handy. Get a...

Fwiw, pg can't be too bad for you. Most MRE menus items have it included somehow... :-)

I was thinking about trying bobcat coolant in my next flush. $19/gal premixed. Don't have to worry about it blowing out. Plus it is a cool purple color!

Anyone run it in their rigs? I know I ran it in my dirtbike once upon a time.

Call m4o. I hauled a dude back to town on my trailer because his was parked at m4o and locked up for the night. When I lived in moab I left the jeep on the trailer with the keys in the ignition and the trailer unlocked. It is a pretty safe place. I might be able to come up with a spot for a...

Re: Re: Official 30th Aniv. Event Trail Run Discussion thread Why not make a Google doc with web form for people to fill out. Then yo start the event with a spreadsheet of data.

yeeeeaaah! I'm looking forward to trying it. Got the smoker done, btw. http://db.tt/ylYFZtiP

No worries. I thought I would give it a shot. See ya in moab this fall!

Can you bring someone with you that has a rig? I am leaving for moab for the summer on Sunday and I wanted to run this before I left

I have no idea! Want t go? Not a fan of going solo... crickets on pirate too...

I want to ressurect this. Running it tomorrow. Same rules as Kraker, but I don't own a dildo shaped cup like kraker does so you'll have to pack one next to your spare d35 axle shafts. Send me a PM or call me: 9tooate ate6foor 8tootoo6

Re: Re: What to expect as a Moab Noob? No worries! This will be the 7th season it will be around moab. Maybe we will cross paths this year!

My dd is a 06 lbz ccsb. I get better fuel economy than my jeep on average. I drive about 25k miles a year. When you add up the costs of wearing the 35s on the jeep and whatnot it is cheaper to drive my dirtymax. Plus it is a hell of a lot more comfortable.
