I could tell I was pulling a trailer but not as bad as I thought it would be.I came back over the James River bridge ( for the people in the Hampton Roads area of VA.) DOING 50-55 in 5th. I though to my self if its to much of a dog I can just use the wifes 2013 JKU with max tow package. I jst wasnt going to let this good deal get away. Now just to figure out what color to paint it. If any one can photoshop can you paint it the color of my jeep and the wheel falirs and bottom trim black. thanks

Working on mine. So many options. Big change was new axle and wheels to match jeep and cut some weight.

Where'd you get the new axle? What's the brand/specs? I'm picking up an M416 this weekend and will be looking to put JK wheels on it.
