Towing with the SMB for the first time...

And it did great. Pulled my XJ up to big bear yesterday and it cruised down the highway as if there wasnt a trailer behind me. The hill up the mountain was a little tougher but with tow haul on and 3rd gear, we cruised right up.

Awesome. Nice XJ by the way.. my username used to be SOCALXJ.

How do you flex with that much lift? Tires don't look like they have any room? Is the XJ pulled down by the straps?
