Car Trailer?

Hey Guys,
I was wondering if any of you had a car trailer i could borrow for a couple hours possibly friday? Needs to be a 4wd trailer. It would be a great help.
Thanks
Tom.

4WD trailer? Like a flatbed and not a dolly?

Re: Car Trailer?

Or you could disconnect the drive shaft awesome trick use some bunji cords tie that sucker to the frame some how so it dosnt put on a spark show and you should be good. I heard it works it might be a myth im not sure.

I always use a dolly.

Like Alpha said, just disconnect the rear of the driveshaft and bungee cord it up so it doesn't drag on the ground.
