Tow Dolly

Okay so I bought this summer thinking I was never going to find a deal on a trailer. Well I might have found a deal that I can't pass up. Only problem is I need to sell the Tow Dolly to use the cash for the trailer. This has been the great for me so far but but with the new project in view I will really need a trailer for the Truggy. The dolly will come with everything I have for it. I have regular straps that are good for car tires all the way to 31's. Two months ago I had custom straps made that are ajustable from 33's to 38's. I have all the papers for the tow dolly. Its easy to tow with light trucks and SUVs. I have towed both my Jeep and the Toyota thru the mountains and never had a issue. Best two things about the dolly that I will miss is that to store it I lean it agains the back wall of my shop it takes up no space at all. Also it doesn't need to be taged. New the Dolly I have goes for 800-1000. I'm looking for 450 OBO. I dont have any current pictures of it at the moment but I would be happy to take some pictures for anyone with interest. Below is the link to mastertow who made the dolly. only difference is that mine has the metal fenders not the crappy plastic ones. Mine is the larger of the two that they sell.

Thats a great price most used tow dollies go for $600 and they don have the big straps good luck with the sale.

yeah I got a deal on it and I figured I would pass it on. I also installed new LED tail lights and marker lights on it. If it doesn't sell I will leave it in the back of the shop since it doesn't take up space or cost anything to keep. Anyone interested please email or PM if you have any questions.

It just got new tires and I'm looking for a trailer. Its for sale to the first one with a good offer and cash. I'm still trying to get 450 for it.

I am interested in the dolly, but do you think I could borrow it and try it out first I have never use a dolly before, but am thinking that I could use the pathfinder to pull the adrenaline jeep for comps with it...

Would want to at least hook up the jeep and take if for a spin around the block...

Hey Greg, nice to see that your getting on the board. Your welcome to use the Dolly anytime you need to. I could even meet you halfway with it if need to try it out or you could borrow it for a little while and give it a try if you want. I know nick would tow a car trailer with his pathfinder and do okay. I pull the jeep to the beach with Emily's explorer this summer and the dolly was a easy pull. Using the tow dolly vs. a trail has its ups and downs but a big up is the weight factor. I'm not sure how Nick's pathfinder did with the V6 but with the small V8 in our explorer it had no issues going up or down hill. But like I said before your welcome to try it out and see what you think if its not for you just let me know and there will be no hard feelings. This also goes for any club member that might be thinking about using there mid size SUV or pickup as a tow rig. I would not suggest using it on a weekly basis but as a way to tow your rig on a once a month or bimonthly use this is perfect for those that don't have a strong 1/2 ton or 3/4 ton truck. Also for those that do not have room to store a trailer. I store the dolly inside my shop on the rack and the man that owned it before me stored it by leaning it against his garage.

I am going to be at rausch tomorrow - any chance you are going to be up there too? I will have the blue jeep there for the scavenger hunt, so won't be towing.

It does have a hitch though if the trailer was going to be available...

Otherwise, we can wait - seems like I get down to skyline drive a lot this time of year.

Are you still using the dolly to move your rig in the mean time?

Greg

The dolly is free to use. i won't be at RC this weekend. I bought a trailer this week so once I get the van setup with a brake controller and transmission cooler I will be towing with the trailer. Let me know when you plan to run to skyline next I could meet you somewhere with it.

The Pathfinder will tow a dolly and the Jeep with little effort. That V6 is like 270hp - it was never really an issue of power. Get a set of cheap air ride bags with a manual air up valve ($100). It made a big difference even with the dolly and Hondas. The back suspension is pretty soft and the bags got rid of the squirm and made for a much more confident ride.


OH YAH, IT'S ABOUT TIME YOU GOT YOUR ASS ON THIS FORUM!!!!

Yea, I am just catching up on the posts from RCRocs. Seeing my name tossed around I might be feeling a little guilty... BTW great pictures from the finals, was nice to see.

Thanks for the tip on the dolly...

BTW today's scavenger hunt was a lot of fun - missed you guys there. Led my team to a win - won a cool 30k lbs towstrap.

Club announcement - Dolly is now mine - at least once Nester finds the title...

never the less - dolly is now living in Laurel - and available for anyone on the forum who needs to borrow it. Don't have a heavy duty tow rig here in Laurel to loan you too, but the dolly is here - 4 wire harness, 2" ball.

I found it. PM or Email me your address.
