  1. Do you know a good Subaru mechanic around the Dekalb area?

  2. The euro jr. that gloyale mentioned is great. The one w/ the sliding lock? Yeah. I put mine on top of the change try next to the ebrake. Worked great. Never in the way at all. never spill or tip.:-p
  3. I didn't read all the replies... I don't have time right now. But the biggest reason (besides all the tech help that just oozes out of the forum) is that I feel like I have friends here. Plain and simple:)
  4. You think the skateboard helps w/ stability?
  5. Dan, hows she drivin now? How much are you selling it for? Too bad ya moved so far away (ahh, for me that is!)
  6. Actually I have seen this front wheel set up before. It was made by a real company to slide in a 2' reciever... I have had the same "gotta get the car and bike somewhere" blues.. I took a plane back for the bike:) Look online for some pics of it to get an idea. You would'nt even know its back there. Honestly dude, you'd never even know the bike was back there on a small trailer like we talked about. Just drive like an old man, keep a few more feet between. Borrow a trailer and try it out if possible. You will see its not a problem. You're not towing much weight. Make the trailer deck (of that 4'x4' trailer) so it cover part of the toung so its long enuff for your bike. Just make sure of how you strap it up, not leaning on the kick stand! Straight up, w/ 4 RATCHET straps. 4 corners at angles so it is rock solid. You should be able to shake the heck out of the bike and it should stay ridgid on the trailer. Try to make a front wheel mount up there to keep 'er straight. Wish I had pic of my bikes on trailers to show ya better. Last thing we want is your bike passing you in a curve on the highway!
  7. Hey lost- You will have no problem towing your bike. Keep your trailer as light as possible (some folks use so much steel its crazy). Ever seen the 4' x 4' trailer Menards sells? The little red ones? Think along those lines. The car will be fine, just keep in mind you will be slow to start and stop. I towed my boat all over, launched it, everything. As far as towing anything else, I've never had a problem. I towed a broken down cherokee home @25mph! Do you have any real towing experiance? Hopefully Gloyale will chime in- He just moved back to Oragon from Wisconsin towing a trailer FULL of crap. He is the one to talk to about it. How are you doing your hitch? That would be the "weak link" if not done right. There are lots of suggestions floating around here.
  8. Connie, I am truly jelous! Man, I wish I could hook a west coaster! :cool:
  9. Nice car. I know Gloyale has a lot of FSM's... Maybe try to send him a PM about it. He has helped me alot.
  10. I didn't read all the posts here, but I feel the very same way... I want a D/R FI wagon!
  11. I just became soobless a couple weeks ago! Its gonna be a little while before I get another one. Its too bad they don't still make the D/R wagon in one form or another.
