Very nice setup,  I tow with a pital hitch, I hate the ball type and towing is what I do, I pick up junk cars and take them to the crusher, But you do have a nice setup so don't worry about towing with that big O cumming under the hood :thumbsup:

Hey Old School, looks sweet ! Ya need to color code the outfit and in some contrasting color write "Pandora's Box" on the side of the trailer. What's inside will bring nightmares to brand X'ers.  :roflsmiley: BTW, I'd vote for the sway bars too, never owned one but have used a couple and I won't tell you I necessarily noticed a difference except knowing if there was a problem I felt the bars would stablize things. Like Larry said, insurance, physially as well as peace of mind.

The setup looks great, Oldschool!  I'd definitely have to vote on getting a set of those stabilizer bars.  I saw first hand last year the differences having a set and not having them did.  A fellow member here had a U-haul car hauler and was cruising with a couple other members. (we were tailing in the back in a car.)  Our other member who was leading had his car on a car hauler with the stabilizers (installed them the day before we left MI).  We were all going about 68-70 on the Pennsylvania turnpike when the guy with the U-haul trailer started getting pulled all over the lane he was in.  (it looked really nasty seeing the Challenger up on the trailer getting thrown around close to the median.)  I know another member also was talked into buying a set at Carlisle 'cause they said it was handling really hard on their way up, but the bars definitely helped them on their way back.  That's my little story about them and my  :2cents:.  With a car like yours, I'd definitely have that little extra insurance just in case you do get put into a nasty situation. :cheers:

 :thumbsup: I agree with what everyone has said !! nice set up OS! I didn't know you got a truck too! what a beauty! and that trailer is sure nice also! Now you don't have to worry if it is gonna rain on the way to Carlisle!! lol just stick the beast in the trailer and come!!   I like WSM's idea of writing  "pandora's box" on the side!! it'll make people wonder what's inside!! great purchase! I bet you are gonna be real happy with it!!  :bigsmile:

I used to to 6000 lbs worth of race car and trailer with a 94 dakota sport, and the equilizer bars made a BIG difference!  Never used the sway bar but heard they work well.
