Trailering my M37 at highway speeds.

Post by UDTDave »

Hello fellow M37 and general military vehicle enthusiasts. I purchased a nice M37 and it will be trailered 1200 miles to get it home. Do I need to worry about the (new) soft top being shredded at 70 mph highway speeds? Thanks for the advice.

Welcome Dave,
I'd fold the top down under the windshield for the trip. That protects your glass, and your top.

Thanks!

Wow, UHaul let you rent? They told me the trailer’s max was 5600 pounds.

They may have needed the business!
It towed just fine like that, over Donner Pass, from CA to Utah!
