U-Haul sells a set of longer straps for vehicles with larger tires. $30 for the pair. They are 8 1/2' long. They have a metal bracket on one end that connects to the round metal bar behind the tire. Very easy to use. My truck has 33" tires. There was maybe a foot of extra strap once it was cinched down. They might work for 35" tires. Not likely for 37" tires.

The rear engine of the VW might be the only time you back a vehicle on to the trailer. Max weight at the front of the trailer.

Thank you for info. We’re gonna moving a uhaul from Massachusetts to Arizona with auto transport too. Can I ask if we need to stop at weight station or we can bypass?
@JonnyDIY
@JonnyDIY Жыл бұрын
You're welcome glad to help. It depends how big of truck you're renting and which route you're taking. I suggest calculating the weight of empty truck plus empty trailer plus cargo and car weight. Then map out your route and check regulations for each state. Some states require you stop regardless but some you have to be over a certain weight limit

This is a really helpful video. Does U-Haul recommend transporting the vehicle unloaded or can you pack you VW bus with stuff you'd like to move? Thank you for a really good video, Jonny! 👍👍👍
@JonnyDIY
@JonnyDIY 2 жыл бұрын
Thank you & you're welcome. Uhaul does not recommend loading a lot of weight into the tow behind vehicle. A few evenly distributed things is ok. You don't want to throw off weight distribution. And you want to be sure that you're not exceeding the trailer or max towing for your vehicle. The big one is insurance may not cover an accident if found out it was heavily or improperly loaded with things 👍

Hey do you recommend a tow dolly or a vehicle transport for a Saturn vue 2006 model that is inoperable? Looking to get it transported myself to avoid hefty towing prices
@JonnyDIY
@JonnyDIY Жыл бұрын
If the vehicle is 2 wheel drive a dolly is fine. If awd or 4wd, get the vehicle transport trailer. And if its a long haul and you own a vehicle that can pull the trailer (it'll be extra weight) or are using their truck I would opt for the trailer as then you dont have to worry about blowing a tire out on your vehicle 👍

Question, shouldn’t that jack stand be lowered when loading the vehicle? I have seen this trailer get lifted and unlatched from the hitch because the stand was not lowered when loading/unloading the vehicle .

I believe there's place for a lock. I don't think you could move by hand, this is a heavy trailer. You could with the tow dolly

I just watched the whole video you told me more than U-Haul did. I had to trailer twice the first time in my life. I did it the other day and I had a couple questions based on watching another video about trailers. One question was they said you should measure your tongue weight which I don’t know how to do and then the other video they showed the guy put a level on it to see that the whole thing is straight which U-Haul doesn’t have and the other question is how do you know that your ball is lined up with the trailer. my truck sits lower down than an F150. this is supposed to be so easy a caveman could do it but I wasn’t certain I know what I’m doing plus U-Haul didn’t tell me that that side thing can be disconnected or slid down so I had to climb out the window. I didn’t know.
@JonnyDIY
@JonnyDIY 7 ай бұрын
Nice job, nerve racking towing those first couple times. I usually lower the trailer tongue so its just a little higher than ball on truck so can see and line up easier. Glad I could help 👍

You could but make sure on level ground with both sides tires chocked and dont load or unload if not hooked to hitch. Can also throw some jackstands or blocks under if worried about tipping depending on vehicle balance
