Re: Can I tow it without brakes a short distance?

Back before I new trailer brakes were a nice thing to have, I towed lots of car trailers (with cars) with older half tons than that. Early to mid 90's trucks. The cars were 3-3500 pounds by themselves, plus the trailer weight. Never had a problem with braking. Even with trailer brakes I give myself way more room to stop though (of course). That said, sounds like you are fine with holding off. Nothing wrong with that either. Same here but with my race car. Had a close call when someone pulled out in front of me and it took 4-ever to slow down. Also almost lost it when slowing down in a curve on wet roads. The trailer pushed the back of the truck sideways.456Views0likes0Comments- 330Views0likes0Comments
