Isn't that like too much tongue weight, or not enough trailer brakes or something? I know when I'm heavy on the tongue the back of my trailer dogs all over, regardless of being under the hitch weight.

Re: Wicked Van Project

jage your talking about swaying ..... im talking about when you make a right or left turn the axle are forward to handle the load but with you turn sharp the back of the trailer kicks out or gets wider on the back end.... this is alos affected by the tow vehical of where the rear axle of the tow vehical is in relation the the ball mount of the trailer... im sure theres a more technical way of explaining it ....

Re: Wicked Van Project

Don't worry about the EB vans, they tow great. I have towed the same 31.6foot, 7500lbs TT with two EB vans, not a single issue!

Re: Wicked Van Project

My first van was a 2000 with the 7.3 PSD 3.55 rear. (All stock)
current van is a 2005 V10 with 3.73 rear. (All stock except tuned)

Zero issues with the 2005. The 2000 used to get the trans very warm until I put in a trans cooler.
