I've already done a brake test, comes to a straight, fast stop. With what research I've done, it's legal. (talked to Hwy patrol, and friend is doing same with fifth wheel camper and short trailer, he talked to indiana and ohio).
Still going to be well under 10,000 lbs. Camper's 5500, trailer...
Leave nothing behind!
Jeep in bed of deuce, camper, and car trailer will have hillbilly racing tractors on it. 3 guys in the cab for 200+ miles, at 50 mph. YEA!
Added a brake controller to the deuce to run the camper brakes. The car trailer has surge brakes on both axles, that have been...
Heck, I can't resist driving 2-3 times a month. Sometimes 2-3 times a week if I'm working it.
I would recommend a decent (20 mile at least) drive once a month. Enough of a drive to get everything warmed and lubed. In the winter I've had sometimes where couldn't drive for 6 weeks, too much...

The jeep JUST got fixed. New(well, different) motor, axle seals, brakes, u-joints, some wiring, carb, starter, battery, clutch linkage, shocks, repacked bearings, changed all fluids, and some other stuff I can't recall.
So it should run...LOL!
I'm kinda of with JWC on this, but I'll play. Make a link in your first post to the original rally thread, should help.
The more the merrier, but I'm not worried if we have 5 guys and 2 trucks, or 50 guys with trucks. I always come home tired and happy. If I see a bunch of people there...
