Loaded question - should I tow this?

That's the problem I'm running into is finding a trailer it'll fit on. That's today's project.

I'm renting. This thing runs and drives just fine but a 3spd trans and mud tires on a 3hr drive would be brutal. 

 

She ain't pretty but it's a starting point for a father daughter project. She's so happy we own a monster truck now. 

 

 

Hell yeah!  More pics!

Do you know anyone that would have 4 stock wheels/tires you could throw on that to get it on the trailer and home?

Yeah, I saw some guys doing that to a truck in a parking lot to get it on a carhauler trailer (taking off oversize wheels and putting on stock wheels).

This would make the job much easier.

 

OP... do you still have the stock wheels on your truck, or a different set, and if so, do you still have the stock set?  If so, use your stock set turned inside out on the K5.  The offset is such that C/K wheels hit K5 tie rod ends so I would assume the same for K2 trucks, but if you turn them inside out they'd clear.  It doesn't matter that the lug seat is flat and not conical, you're not driving it anywhere except the trailer.

Sweet Blazer.

The blazer is on 1 ton axles so my stockers wouldn't work.

 

Ended up not being able to find a car hauler trailer that could fit it so I picked it up on my parents flat bed and got to tow it back with their high country dmax.  Combined weight was nearly 10k lbs and that truck held 80mph on the hills with no effort.

Nice! Keep the pics flowing. Maybe turn this into a build thread?

That's the plan.
