Gearz Episodes: Trailer Towing and Modification

Trailer Towing and Modification

Season: 5 | Episode: 7

If there's one thing that every gearhead needs, it's a trailer so you can drag more junk home! The problem is, most of us don't really put much thought into the set up of a trailer, and that can add up to some serious problems when you go to retrieve your prize. Today on GEARZ, Stacey walks you thru how to set up a simple trailer, so you'll be ready to pull a rusted hulk out of a field, or pull a restoration from coast to coast. Compressed air, Winch, and auxiliary electric power are all things that you CAN take with you if you take the time to plan ahead and select the right equipment so it all works together. If you like to hunt for those forgotten treasures, a trailer is one tool you've got to have!
