LOLRe: Why is towing my little trailer so stressful?I think heavier leaf springs or a new truck all together!Re: Why is towing my little trailer so stressful?Ive even tried pulling with my Sedona and same resultsRe: Why is towing my little trailer so stressful?My guess is the single axel. I have a 1971 Aladdin Car-Pet thats 18 foot with the hitch. Under 2500 pounds and I pull it with a 2001 Chevy Astro Van rated at 3500. I have anti sway bars etc...Biggest problem I have is it weighs down the hitch quit a bit and I hate the feeling of having the front end of the van feel like its floating. I dont put a ton a******in the trailer or the van. Im good to 60 MPH but it still feels loose and GOD FORBID when a semi goes past cause it throws me all over the place.Re: Redecorated small trailerTHat true West end and I must say you did a ton of work on yours. Ive bought most my stuff from Cabelas but will use cabin fever for other thingsRe: Redecorated small trailerThank you so much for the cabin fever website! My C.C. has a 13k limit. I think I will tap into that now!Re: Paint recommendationThanks guys. The paint on it is original and no bare metal is showing. I was not sure if I could scuff it up and paint over it with a latex. I will follow your tips come springtimeRe: 1971 Aladdin Car-PetI will try that this weekend. Thanks for the tipRe: 1971 Aladdin Car-PetI will do that and thanks again for the advice. The furnace really does not bother me as I have a propane heater and an electrical one as well but I still want to get it working non the less. The oven is a bit touchy as well. Bought a in oven thermometer as well and still figuring out how to get the temp just right for baking.Paint recommendationLooking for some advice on paint my rig. 1971 Aladdin Car-Pet with aluminum siding. What type of paint should I use when I repaint it and do I need primer. Photos are under my post 1971 Aladdin
