So... another request for info here.
My wife and I are considering the purchase of a small camping trailer, dry
weight about 2600 lbs, tongue weight about 340 lbs.
Our intended storage spot is a bit tight to get into and I think we'd do
better with a motorized dolly rather than trying to use the tow vehicle to
position things. But, these dollies are $800+!
Then I got to thinking - why not use the E20? Has lots of torque, and the
surface is level to slightly sloping. Best of all, I've already
invested in
it!!!
My only question: Does anyone think that the 340 lb. tongue weight
would be
too much for the ET's rear tires or axle assembly? I couldn't find
anything
in the literature I have here. The archives only seem to have info on the
weight it can push, not the tongue weight. If the weight is too much,
maybe
I could put a rubber wheel on the tongue jack and allow it to roll/pivot
while taking some of the weight off of the tongue.
Any input appreciated.
