Default Re: Towing a big truck

Yes, they are both 1 1/2 ton and both run, but, for now, road worthy tires are not in the budget so I want to stick to parades. I have two ways I could tow it: 1. I have a 3 point hitch bar which would allow all four points of the truck to be on the ground and, 2. I can put the weight of the front end of the towed truck on the rear axle of the towing vehicle by using another kind of hitch bar which goes under and lifts up the front of the towed truck. Using method 1, I am pretty sure the front of the towed truck would track but I would test it first before going far. My father built and used both methods but I do not remember what, if anything, he did with the rear axles, which was the reason for my original question.
Thanks - MGG
