Do they have any issues with this?

I want to buy a couple of smaller military trailers for my business and want to see if we can take a couple of our trucks up there to pick them and just hook them to the trucks and pull them home.

Probably about an hour drive or so from the GL location to the shop.

No problem, just be careful

Sweet.

I've towed 6 home in the last year. Just pop over to a Harbor Freight and get a set of magnetic trailer lights.

Unless you have a tall truck they will not run level though. Just take it easy.

I'm mean. You know what I mean. If you know what I mean, you'll know what I mean! I'm mean! Meaner than... , I sure am mean. Yeah, mean. I'm meaner than that. You know what I mean. I'm so **** mean! I'm mean!

I just towed my M353 trailer back from Ft. Lewis with a Chevy Astrovan. Haha. The trailer tongue was almost touching the ground, but it pulled it just fine.

We have brought 5 home. Most trailer lunettes are much higher than a pickup hitch, so you need to plan on carefully lowering the trailer tongue, or backing up onto wood to raise your hitch high enough to connect. Also, plan on low tire pressure, trailer lights are 24 volts so you will need lights as previously mentioned, and tools - no telling what you will need.

Thanks, guys! I plan on getting pintles with a rise on them so they sit more level. I'd be pulling them with a 2000 Z71 Sierra and a 2005 Silverado.

I'll bring a compressor, tools, trailer lights, and some wood, just in case.

Also give the wheels a GOOD rocking just to make sure the wheel bearings are OK. In the last two year I have gotten , one that had no bearings in the hub and one that the lock nut was loose and just happen to see the wheel wobbling about 2 mile outside the gate.
