Frist comes first I haven't made vary many posts so here is at least one. I live in northern philly and I put a hitch and helper springs on my truck beacuse I had to sell my toy.
on the trailer
I took the car to comblus OH and then picked up a 71 amc javlin for a friend and drove back. we got round 12 mpg at 65mph, we also had a 350 long block and a 700r trans in the back of the truck on the way back.
Then a few months later I took a 1950 ford pickup to new hampshire. Witch was very heavy, allmost 6,000 with traler.
as you can see the helper springs are doing there job in the second to last pic there was no sag at all, pix to come of the helper springs on the truck.
