Trailer Question
« on: 09/24/06 - 07:53PM »
I am looking into getting a pop up camping trailer to take out to the parks around the area.  Does anybody know where I can go to find out how much I can pull without putting a strain on my engine?  All I have is an inline 6 with a cool air intake.  Not sure of the Diff size or gear ratio.  Any info would be great!!
