Tremors Towing Things

All set for Winter!

I just got done towing my antique tractor back home. It went to a friend of mine who is an excellent John Deere mechanic. I had him dry up a few leaks that I felt were above my level of mechanical skill.

It a 1972 John Deere 3020, built the last week of production. Powershift with a M&W turbo put on by the dealership brand new. It has only 3720 original hours. My plan was to get it dried up, then do a cosmetic restoration as I feel it’s a survivor and a great work horse.

New trailer so had to validate purchase. Weighed in right at 10k on this load (8800 on axles and 1200 on the tongue). Old trailer was an 18’ dove w/o max ramps, so the effective usable area was more like 16’. Can use nearly all 26’ of this one.

That's a great looking rig stem to stern. Looks like a man ready to get work done! 🍻

God damn that two tone looks so good
Thanks! The color combo of the truck and camper going down the road looks killer. I thought it would be too “Old Man” but it has really grown on me.

Nice - you are going to have a great time - Sand Hollow is awesome! Was there last March and going again this March with same group! The Pro R is perfect car for having fun there!

Here is our set up - with S&B fuel tank I was able to drive from S.Cal to Sand Hollow with no stops which was nice - diesel there was $2 per gallon cheaper on the same day than here - filled up in the morning in Hurricane and then when I got home that afternoon!

S&B tank would be nice.. My Tremor is a gasser
Transfer flow has a tank I was looking at but the $$$ wow, the range really isn't to bad stock but to your point driving straight though would be really nice.

I have had Transfer Flow tanks in past trucks and they were great - high $$$ entry - but so nice ot have the added range and "option" to decide when to stop, especially if you tow a lot. If you are thinking about it, get it as soon as you have the $$$ so you can enjoy it for entire truck life - It is my favorite mod to my truck!
