Are you pulling it empty to get it home? The M332 should only weigh about 3K.

Take you time and you should be ok, just don't be in a hurry, leave distance.

No trailer brake with that much weight IMO is asking for trouble.

I should know, I hot shot on the side and have had to turn down some loads due to no brakes, lost some money but just wasn't safe.

Yes my F250 could have handled it no problem, but what happens when you have to slam on the brakes.

Remember Newton:

I. Every object in a state of uniform motion tends to remain in that state of motion unless an external force is applied to it.

Brakes would be your external force in this case. No brakes and the trailer might end up in front of you, well next to you.
