    M353 lunette height

    If I had to tow the M353 350 miles, it might still be on the side of the highway! With the tires aired down, it would be a different story as long as the trailer didn't start that bouncing @ 32 mph! The full sized truck that towed it 80 miles had no bouncing @ all? Even @ interstate speeds! Now...

Yes, I know that both M1101 &...

    Watch out that you don't get too much leverage from the trailer transferred to the riser & damage or worst case, break it off. The M105A2, even though they weigh the same, has 3/4 the tongue weight of the M353! Good luck on your project!

    M353 lunette height

    I have towed an M105a2 trailer & an M353 trailer with a 20" height pintle on a Toyota Tacoma with no problems except the bouncing on the M353. The M105a2 pulls like a dream & stops with no problems if you watch road conditions. The M353 has a tongue weight of 370#s so it will lower your truck a...
