Veritas Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 I should be getting my FD shell sometime later this week and I was trying to find out if anyone here would have a flat bed or something that I could rent for a day to go down to north carolina and back to pick the ride up. Post up if anyone has any ideas/suggestions. T.c. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RX-7 Addict Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 You can get a Uhaul trailer for pretty cheap.. like under $50 for a 1 way trip for 1 day. http://www.skmeyer.com/tow.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lustalbert Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 why the flatbed? no wheels, bad wheels, or just want to pull more weight? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedRocket1647545505 Posted March 29, 2005 Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 uhaul has auto transports that get the car completely off the ground. It's a full trailer instead of the dolly that Addict showed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways that's off topic, my friend miles said that they have issues with moving things with an explorer apparently so... yeah. Anywho, question still stands. T.c.

Veritas Posted March 29, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 29, 2005 oh yeah and he's the one moving the car with me so it's dependant on his vehicle(he's the one with the explorer) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of us with modded FD's run a GM 3-bar map sensor because the OEM one will not read over 17psi and is less accurate. Other manufacturers of parts on my FD: Nissan Toyota GM Ford Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GRN96WS6 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 UHAUL will not rent to anyone towing with an Explorer because of their flipping issues. Maybe try another friend with a different vehicle? Other then that I don't have a clue. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Veritas Posted March 30, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Hrmph. Don't really know anyone else who has that type of a vehicle or something capable who'd really feel like going out to north carolina with me. Damned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How sure of this are you? I work for an equipment rental company that also rents U-hauls and I've never heard this. Of course, I've never rented a trailer to someone with a Explorer, so the computer might catch it. But I personally have never heard this.

Guest GSRchick714 Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 Doesn't seem liable to me. I'm sure they'd lose a lot of business if they didnt' rent trailors to Explorers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Total Sign Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 I have access to one, will check and see if the owner will let you borrow it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He called them up looking for a trailer, and they told him he that he couldn't rent one because he had an explorer. He was trying to find some Mercury badges to put onto it, because they would rent one to him then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nurkvinny Posted March 30, 2005 Report Share Posted March 30, 2005 It was my trailer Miles ended up using. They will not rent trailers if they will be towed by an Explorer. True story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
