Re: Towing capability
With "1500" that means you have a C10 that is a 1/2 ton pickup truck? It won't handle 14k. I have a 1972 C20 (3/4 ton) that I converted to a C30 (1 ton) with a 4:10 dually rear end, big brakes off a 1989 1 ton truck (front disks, rear drums), vacuum booster, 5k rear air bags, trailer brakes, LS1 engine, 5 spd NV4500, digital dash, ETC (make that a LONG ETC!), lol. I have pulled 14-15k with the truck and I've had 8k on the steel flat bed and I would not recommend anyone doing that with similar setup as mine, much less on a 305 1/2 ton truck. Even with my big brakes, brakes are still the weak point.
