Oh Hell Yeah, RaptorSteve's Build Thread!

Maximum combined vehicle weight is different for 2013 6.2L scab and screw, 12500 and 14700 respectively. I'm more than comfortable towing a 4400 lb. trailer. I found this site that suggests that the towing capacity goes way up with a weight distributing hitch.

The truck is lookin' great! Congrats!


The DOT regs say that you do not need a CDL endorsement on your license until your combined gross vehicle weight reaches 26K lbs. That is the combined weight of the truck, trailer, load, etc overall.

"I wanted to do my blue screw in the receiver hitch". This is the best line I heard in a long time. Good one!

Thanks. I bet you a fleshlight would fit in there.

I just looked up what one was...Man they look pretty cool...

Steve...would you give us a review of your experience with the fleshlight!?!?

Maybe they will becum a supporting Vendor...

 

[RaptorSteve]

Will do! I'll post detailed instructions on how to do the mod. I'll include pictures, too, so I'm way ahead of your there.

I don't want to hear "If there are no pics, it didn't happen."

Wow, remind me not to touch your Receiver. Ehh! Blue Screw is stuck in my head. Maybe you should consider changing your Username to "Blew Screw"!

Welcome aboard. I like the trailer you acquired as well.
