Rear end dragging when towing "With Pics!"

That car I was towing in the first pic, That's a VS Commodore (1997) they're based on the Buick and have an all cast iron engine 3.8L OHV V6 which is heavy as hell.

I put a 2.4L Magna on there the other day and it looked pretty much level.

I put a Short wheel base 4WD 2.0L sportage on there and even with it held way back with 3t slings, it still worked it's way forward over the 200 klm drive. and pushed the back end of the Explorer way down.

Maybe I should try to find myself a tow vehicle.
 






I would be careful about trans temps if you are towing around that much weight so often. These trannys are not the strongest out there that is for sure.
