O.K. I may have stumbled on to a unique oportunity to make a living (in part) using my little TO-20. No problem so far. In fact it may be the chance of a lifetime. My superhuman mental abilities have kicked in, and it has occurred to me that I will need to get the thing to the worksite/s somehow. Now here is the problem. My truck is a 1990 Toyota 1/2 ton 4x4. The suspension is strong and stiff, motor pretty strong for a 6 banger and the clutch is good. But if you are familiar with these trucks you know that they are pretty light and have a narrow wheelbase. The tractor weighs in (if memory servers) at about 2700 lbs. Suprisingly, the guys at the trailer places don't seem to frown to hard on the idea. I've also got a buddy who is knowledgable about such matters and is typically really safety conscious, and he thought it would be "alright". Is this truck capable of pulling this tractor safely? (with the proper hitch and trailer setup). Thanks in advance
