Flat Towing

Post by OhioPinz »

Does any one flat tow their Pinz? If so, how do they have it set up for towing? How far have they gone?

Thanks, Alan

Hi Alan,

This has been discussed before & unfortunately some of the info lost in the previous site hacking.

Most recently though discussed in the "General section" under "toy hauler" thread: viewtopic.php?t=2620

Bought my 710M near Nashville. Brought it home on a 16 foot landscaping trailer. Took it out to Colorado on the same tailer.
I now trailer it on a 20 ft carhauler. The 20 footer is large enough for the Pinz and an M416 tucked in behind the Pinz. The carhauler was ordered with brakes on both axles.
I chain the Pinz down in the front. The back is tied down with a 10,000 military ratchet strap. On the deck, boards are mounted to position the truck. This way I get the proper tongue weight everytime.
There are 2 swivel jacks mounted in the rear to lower for loading. I saw a guy with is setup at a Tractor show, it works very well.
The Pinz can be on the trailer and tied down in 15 mimutes.
Swifty 72 710M
