>>I do have a 57 2 ton flatbed that would be an excellent hauling
vehicle
with a gooseneck or 5th wheel hitch. But, it is stock 261 4 sp w/ 2
sp
rear axle and it's not ready for long distance road tripping. But,
it sure
would be a nice hauler - what do ya'll think about using this truck.
I
don't even know what gears it has. Do ya'll?<<
Your truck should be a 6000 series (2 ton) and from what I find its
optional 2 speed rear is rated at 15,000# and could have a 5.83/7.95
to 1 or 6.40/8.72 to 1 gear ratio. It should make a great tow
vehicle!
Good luck on your adventure!
