Re: Rental Trailers for towing a 715?

My brother towed mine on a 16 foot flatbed. The main thing is to have trailer brakes and a good set of tires. The tires on my trailer were passenger car rated and the weight ruined them. All four developed bubbles. The trailer felt good though and we were able to cruise at 70-75 mph. This was with a one ton chevy pick up as the tow vehicle. Later, I pulled the Kaiser on the same trailer with my 1/2 ton chevy to the exhaaust shop and back. Again, it felt good as I was rolling but I was in town and only hit about 30-40 mph tops. I don't have a trailer brake controller on the 1/2 ton and the stopping effort was a little nerve racking.
