The other day I seen a A class getting reading to hook up to a full size chevy. rear of car had a receiver he slid is bar under under car past it raised it pushed it inti receiver and pinned it went to front raised it into channel and raised it and pined it to channel. on front I think 2 7/8 locker he had wife back up rv to latch it on. The back of the receiver on the A class as able to move up and down about 4 inches.I asked him how far as he traveled with this system he told me across the usa 3 time never a problem. His buddy built it for him for free on his spare time. anybody else seen things strange like this ti save money. The state he came from was Kentucky.

RE: Dolly towing and leveling jacks

If you have a real tow bar system not one made by someone in his junk pile welded together you don't have a problem. And I have seen a few people who tried to save a few bucks by doing this not a good idear LOL.

RE: Ford V10 vs Chevy Gas

2005 and up is fine for the v-10. Lots of power. Loves to be fueled up.
I've done 3 sets of rear brakes in 120,000 miles--and I'm light footed on them.
Something is wrong with your rears should last 2 times longer then the front ones at least.

RE: LCI hydraulic leveling box brain

I believe what you are talking about is the box that you are punching telling just to go down on auto or manual. The sensors on each leg is wired to it that what needs to be adjusted when needed.

RE: FORD 460 Overheating Mystery

No thermostat make water flow to quick and no chance to cool down through radiator will make it run even hotter.

RE: Advantages of diesel pushers

The advantages of a DP are many..
The engine being "Way back there" it's a much quieter ride (For you at least)
More towing capacity (Typically 10,000 pound hitch may be able to pull it
More cargo carrying capacity
More power at low RPM
Diesel engines tend to be very long life
BUT expensive to service. And COST is the major negative. .
Not true there are FRED's diesel fronts chassis's

RE: F 53 alignment & steer safe

Ford built the truck frame and suspension why should any place change specs? Adding extra better shocks and better heaver sway bars front and read but that will not change it.

RE: Tow Bar Age
