Questions about pallet pullers

[Solar]

There’s no one size fits all formula, but maybe best said with the Promaster, heavy in the middle doesn’t hurt, but preferably heaviest directly over back axle.

I know in my Sprinter, if I set a 2500 pound skid on the back, I'm poppin' wheelies all the way to the delivery.

And blinding airplane pilots.

Don't know about the other vans, but at least with the Sprinter there is that headlamp beam adjuster where you can lower the beam back down when loaded heavy

I don’t have that in the Promaster.

It's very kewl. A 3 position wheel switch on the dash that let's you lower and raise the beam angle as needed. Most vans, pickups and SUVs should have them. It would make the whole world a nicer place.

I don't think I want to be a part of that negotiation. You're on your own

Well "sit " is maybe not the right word....and I'm sure there will be some grill damage involved

Just to say that there is a second use for the J-hook, as it is a easy tool for hooking under the truck if you need someone to pull you out of a snow bank or ditch

Had I realized what Acquisitions was saying, I probably would have bought the hook at the time.

Nonetheless, I realized I had been pulling out pallets with my 3,333lbs straps. Never had a problem.

So, I saw a Axle Strap, similar to the one pictured, only mine is black, and seeing it was also rated 3,333lbs, and that it was flat rings, and would slide right into position on a pallet, AND it is incredibly light and small, I took a chance on it.

Finally got to use it, it worked perfectly, so now I’ll put it on here and recommended it as a potential pallet puller for someone needing something light.
