hehe here is what I tow my Westy with   LOL


For the list that can't see the picture
It is my westy at a  campsite on a car hauler trailer being pulled by my
Ford
ranger with a  4.0 ltr auto.
I am officially a red neck camper...lol
I would not go as  far as saying it pulls it no problem but it does a damn
good job and I  have done it often.
I do use trailer brakes !
I got 140k out of that ford  transmission after pulling trailers nearly that
entire 140k...I  thought that was good!
