Default Re: Trailer brakes PIA

A friend of mine has a 248 WELLCRAFT(same hull as a 250) with twin 225 EVINRUDES on a bracket. He has a tri-axle trailer with 2 axles of brakes. Even with his 99 F-350 dually it would still push a bit if you had to brake hard and fast. I towed it with my 95 2500 diesel SUBURBAN. It wasn't bad with my tow rig, but you could tell it was back there.

I also towed it with a 97 JEEP CHEROKEE several times :o, YES A JEEP CHEROKEE!!!(and not the pink one) It took almost a half mile to stop from 45 even with 2 axles of brakes. BUT I HAD NO PROBLEMS GETTING IT UP TO SPEED :o ;D ;)!!!


Yeah, I aint quite right in the head :P8).
