possible new trail rig

Well I am 99% sure I a,m going to buy a new trail rig. Price is right and I am tire of tearing up Shocker. It don't look pretty but it will rock the trail. Only problem I have now is getting home from indiana.

Your right about not looking pretty, but you won't have to worry about tearing it up on the trail. Wish I could help you get it home but I don't have a trailer either.

Thanks, I'll keep that in mind. Have a couple leads I am following right up on right now.

Do you think my explorer would be ok pulling it with the BII on it? I have pulled a small trailer and a 16 ft pop up with it without any problem just not sure about a vehicle.

My trailer weighs about 1200 pounds or so, actually fairly light, I have pulled it behind my minivan before. Your explorer should be able to handle it, just don't get in a rush, right now the brakes don't work, but unless you have a controller, it won't matter any way.If you have a reciever hitch, I even have load leveler bars for it.
