    Tow Rolla

    Bought this to haul my corolla around



    Need to lengthen the chassis 600-700mm. Tare is 1500kg and GVM is 3350kg. By the time you add me, fluids and tray it should be able to have 1500kg on it's back. Goes pretty well even towing 2000kg as the motor was redone a year or two ago.

    Had a C channel pressed up out of 5mm to plate the chassis. On Monday I want to get the tailshaft down to be lengthened. Hopefully I don't need a two piece.

    Should owe me a bit over $4000 all done

    I own a two and a half litre Commodore

        Knowing your way of cars I wouldn't be surprised if there was a cummins from a ram on a boat already from the states

              Definitely fuck off the cart springs and add bags so you can minimise any ramps you need, keep the weight down and drastically improve the ride

                Short term I'm not planning on getting too fancy on this. Next year I'll make it a bit nicer.

                Hopefully stretching the wheelbase softens the ride a bit

                    Nice find. I've often thought something like that would cart the mini around perfectly.

                        Didn't these have a 3B or something? I don't think it would do 100 even as it sits now.

                          It's a 2.8 diesel, towed a car on a trailer today and held 100 on the freeway easy

                              Are those tyres even correct for it?

                              Pretty sure they're meant to have LTs and split rims.
