I need to get a non-running J truck (full size jeep pickup) from Eugene OR to Boise ID. I’m thinking it weighs in at 4000 lbs or something. My options are, flat tow it with my 87 manual with lift and 33’s, borrow another guy 98 with auto tranny and no lift and give him $150, rent a real tow rig(full size truck) for $400 plus and borrow my friends flat bed.
So guess the question is, how will my truck do pulling that big a load? My engine is not the strongest and with the lift and all it won’t handle well. But it’s only 425 miles and I think there are only a few hills. The other question is how much better will the 98 with an auto be? It would sure suck to have to buy the guy a new tranny at the end of the run.
