This was the biggest bend I've seen come out of our group.
Tworley build
I'm sure the fact that it's been bent multiple times isn't helping.

A few more photos
The truck did OK. It has 3.55 gears and could use a bit deeper gearing on these CO passes. The transmission temp spiked to 236 for a second before dropping. I pulled Loveland pass in 3rd and it was around 222. From my research, although high, it's still in the safe operating range.

U-haul?
i want something short like that trailer, i don't need 20ft, 14ft would be sufficient.

Just step on up to the 6.7 diesel. 3.55 and you can set the cruise on 75 up the IKE and it won’t drop out of 10th, unless someone else slows you down.
On that climb there will always be one 18 wheeler doing 37 mph, passing another 18 wheeler doing 36.5 mph. always.

Yep--for $60/day it was worth a try. I agree, a 14' would be perfect for a tj.
I do regret selling my last 6.7, but had I not sold it I probably wouldn't have a TJ. Someday perhaps....
Must be those crazy flexy metalcoak control arms
They aren't slowing him down too much. That's all I'll say.
Can we finally shout “Trailer queen”, after his years of daily driving a rock crawler?They aren't slowing him down too much. That's all I'll say.
Yeah but everyone knows if you run MetalCloak...
Totally off topic, but such a good full circle: https://nypost.com/2021/08/13/south-park-creators-matt-stone-trey-parker-buy-casa-bonita-restaurant/
I'll be making the 10-11 hour drive to Denver when it's open!
