So, it might be time for me to pick up a small trailer, both for home improvement and auto-x/rally-x detail. I think I remember somebody mentioning they know a guy who does good trailer hitches, so I wanted to open up for comment.

Discuss!

Pretty sure the drawtite hitch I had on my wagon will fit ur Suby... I'll research a bit and let you know. It's sitting in my garage floor. 6 bolts and you are done(no drilling), might just need XL exhaust hangers to clear your muffler.

It's by far the cleanest and low-profile model.

I also have a 4x8 foldable trailer(1,500lb capacity rating) if you noticed it in the corner of my garage.. I'm also looking to get rid of it.

Combo deal for you..... $400 for both......

I already have the longer hangers on my exhaust, which I reluctantly accepted because they were free (the regular length ones broke... I know!). So it might fit. My service manual indicates 7 bolts but it looks like brackets for one of the exhaust hangers is nearby. I guess I could get up under there and take a look tomorrow.

There's a guy down the street from me who has a small trailer he's going to sell me cheep. It'll be nice and can fit some plywood and such. Probably not drywall, though.
