Nothing. Haven't hooked mine up yet.

I bought it to tow my bands gear when we tour. So a small enclosed trailer.

I used to pull a small trailer with my John Deere riding mower on it. Now I am going to use it to pull the trailer with the slicks and such on it.

I have used it to tow a motorcycle trailer, but mainly use it for the hitch-mounted cargo rack for carrying my drag radials to the track.

I use my hitch to tow a small Zodiac. I leave the ball in year round it's also a great defender in the parking lots.

I actually bought my Marauder to tow my 23.5' Travel Trailer 2785 lbs empty and when towed will be about 3800 lbs. My 1992 Crown Vic pulled it well (with tow package) but up the hills it was hurting (65 flat out)! So the Marauder will be next on the list. Before I do this I will make the following changes/additions:

1. Large trans cooler 30,000 GVW made in the USA.
2. Electric Brake hookup
3. 4.10 gears with rebuild of track lock assembly.
4. I already have the SCT2 tuner from Zack which has GREATLY improved the shift characteristics. J mod being considered since I like a "Chirp".
5. Balance of the drive shaft (not that it needs it but just as an assurance).
6. 2.25" Magnaflow Mufflers and respective x-pipe in stainless.

Since I am out of work now we haven't had a chance to try it out. But sometime in 2011 should be the initial tow.

Good luck with your towing.

I haul a trailer with a goldwing on the rare occasion that I enter it into a motorcycle show. I also haul other stuff in the trailer.

I tow that Guap


guap - (gwa'p), n - a considerable amount of money, most often cash, indicating a high degree of purchasing power for fast-depreciation consumer items such as luxury cars and electronics.
