What's the difference between the LT3000 and the UT3000? Want to mount to trailer to haul cars. Recommendation appreciated.

I purchased the UT3000 and it has a very sturdy pre drilled base plate that made it very easy to mount to my four wheeler for me to use as needed durring the riding season and also for lifting and lowering my snow plow blade on my four wheeler. It is a very durrable small system. It has pulled us out of some situations with my four wheeler with no problem and if you are looking to use it as a car hauling pull up winch, I think you would be o.k. as long as you had rolling wheels. Dead drag might not be strong enough. Hope that helps some.

My trailer was prewired for a satellite connection, but if it wasn't, I would run the cable into a window near the entertainment center. Some people use there TV cable hook up, but I understand that means you have to eliminate any splitters or boosters that might be in that circuit. I ordered the X2 with the tripod designed for it, and it works well.

I had to buy different mounts. The ones supplied are nice but they are not 30mm (3\8). I looked at adapters and such but ended up getting new higher rise mounts.

They're both fine for pretty much all the use most recreational off-roaders will ever have for them. But go ahead and spend the extra $5 and get the "All Cast" version (the red one). It'll live through a little more abuse, and you'll look cool fitting in with all the other guys wheeling with them mounted to their rigs in one way or another.

Hi, I've never seen the Ace/"The One" trailer in person but did take a look online . The Ultra Tow does seem to have some big advantages , the 1st being that there is some structure under the rail where as the other trailer relies only on the crimping for strength . The 2nd big advantage is that the UT has a torsion suspension , the ACE/The One has a solid axle . 3rd is that your bike will be lower & sit level on the UT making it easier to load . As I said in my review the UT does need some work , welding a plate under the middle split of the rail is a must as is replacing the tires . The Ace/The1 does have nice rims but I never found the load range of the tires .I put alloy rims w/ 8 ply load range D tires on the trailer & it tows great at 70 mph. I've had my Ultra Tow for ab/ 2 years now and am very happy with after adding the steel plate , new rims & tires , and using bolts in the middle instead of the pins . The bolts take only a few more minutes to fold or unfold the trailer . Make the modifications & it is nice trailer . At least you will know what you are getting into w/ the UT , I was initially mad because I expected it to be perfect w/o working on it & throwing more money at it . Good luck .

I apologize, I really don't know the answer to that. I didn't compare the two. My choice in buying the one that I did was the price of that style vs the other style remote control vehicles traxxas offers. I wish I could be more helpful to you. Good luck!

I have the 4.5 for a travel trailer. It does not get the tire to be repaired totally off the ground due to the suspension. I have to use a small hydraulic jack. The 4.5 helps take off the trailer weight. I would go with the 5.5 if I had to do it again. Biggr is always better. I had a 23 foot deck boat on a galvanized trailer and believe it weighed more than the travel trailer..... Hope this helps

Sorry Logan I can't answer your question. The tractor trailer you are asking about was a gift for my brotherand was shipped directly to him. I didn't see it. You can write him at twilli429@gmail.com. Sorry I couldn't help.

you need the front towing bar that mounts onto the car... I had one already installed from a previous owner... then I had the modify the mounts a bit... works great though, towed my jeep about 2000 miles with no problems, oh and I can disconnect my axles so the wheels don't turn the transmission.... I guess if you don't disconnect your drive shaft you'll blow up your trany... no oil flow... be carful with an old car like that, I'd get a full trailer if I were you... my cars not a classic... wouldn't want to hurt a beauty like a Stingray

The answer to this question is of interest to me as I have a Nissan Titan 4x4 pickup and am considering the device for my use mostly.

Get hold of amazon. They will be able to get it from the supplier. I use mine on my UTV. it. Works great for snow removal and smoothing out the gravel driveway.

I am not sure about utv applications, however it is interchangeable with many polaris atv's. Try to cross reference them on the web and see if they interchange. Good luck and safe riding!

I have not used the Polar single axle trailer ....but I have a different brand. I have found the tandem easy to use. The wheels spin independently and articulation is good. The increase capacity is worth the price for me.

I mounted mine to a 2014 xv crosstrek to the frame and all I have towed is a 10" boat trailer that can't weigh more than 500 lbs in entiritie. Mounting to sheet metal, depending on how thick, you risk bending and even ripping through the sheet metal. You should also take into to consideration emergency breaking with the vehicle you are mounting it to, this adds much more weight by the force of the sudden stop to the joints and hardware of the entire unit

Absolutely. I have a 38 foot T.T. and I back it up our 200 ft back driveway after every trip. You will enjoy how this hitch performs. We have used a Reese dual cam anti-sway system and the Husky. I have found this Equalizer (when properly installed) to be the best hitch available... especially for the price. On one cross country trip we had a unit in the space next to us with the identical hitch and approached me to ask about its' performance. He had real trouble with his unit. I went over to look at the unit and found a do it yourself hook up that even I was alarmed by how screwed up he mounted it. I have had NO problems with ours and would not go to any other hitch on the market. Absolutely. I have a 38 foot T.T. and I back it up our 200 ft back driveway after every trip.

Recently made a 3500 mile RT to Casper Wyoming and back by way of Denver to Ohio with a friend. He had a trucker GPS which gave prefered routes avoiding Toll's, low underpass, weight restrictions/bridges, the screen was 5" easy to see . Don't remember the GPS name, but they are available at truck stops. We also used a Garmin, as the trucker GPS routed us to the truck routes. Driving a F350 dually and pulling a 35' tag trailer, total length was 58'. Useing both units was much better than only one.

I have a 2012 X5 towing a 5000 lbs travel trailer. I even installed after market electrical wiring and works really well. Do your research on your vehicle wiring. Prodigy RF really is plug and play. GL.
