Added To The TOW List!
 

Towed this into place with the 2--My Helper! :cool:
Moved About 150' into place. Found out I had NO power to the Winch! :eek: On the first Pull Attempt! :mad:

So I just used the 2 And A Strap! :cool:

Started on one side.

how much did you pay for those 20 footers up there?

I figured we'd have a surplus of them around here after the hurricane blew a crapload of them miles inland last year, but the prices have gone up, not down.

Re: Added To The TOW List!
 

Very impressive. How much do those containers weigh?

Re: Added To The TOW List!
 

They've went down in price!....From 25 to $2400.

Re: Added To The TOW List!
 

Weighs in @ 5010 lbs.

On the line up pull----I was so proud!;) --low lock with locker on, All 4 tires were diggin holes! :cool:

Re: Added To The TOW List!
 

I dare say you can get those containers cheaper here. There are storage yards all over near the terminals stretching out to Suffolk.

Nice pull, Z. Glad you didn't use that ugly little p/u.:twak: ;)

the 2 driver must not know the 2
I've been challenged by almost every suv and truck, and all have been smoked, the best competitor was a toyota tacoma with the V8, I just ended up running him off the road :)

Wowsers!!! My guess is with the friction of the ground, the actual amount of pull you had to exert was around 6,000 lbs. [just an uneducated guess]

That's the preferred method with Big Nasty. He can't get out of his own way.

Never been able to squeak a tires on the 2!...Let alone Chirp One!.....snicker...snicker!

Re: Added To The TOW List!
 

You probably should keep a close eye on your t-case chain as if you are doing a lot of "competitive" pulling, you WILL stretch that chain....

WIth my Humvee I pulled out a 80,000 (when loaded - he just dropped it off) dump truck and I spun all 4 tires on pavement that was about 80 degs F. I was shocked.... So was the dump truck driver.... I did end up getting him unstuck.... but he also wrecked one of my towstraps....
