Hi guys, I'm picking up a inop roller 914 tomorrow in Louisville KY. I'm looking for ideas for loading this 914 on a U-Haul car transport trailer. It will likely be just my wife and I and we may need some mechanical assistance to load it.
Q: Has anybody figured out a way to temporarily mount a hand crank boat winch on said U-Haul trailer? Another potential 914 parts car has a broken passenger side suspension console. Any ideas for loading that on a U-Haul trailer would be appreciated as well. |

All good suggestions, also beware if the ramp lips hitting the bottom if tHe car is lowered or tires flat.
I’ve used ratchet straps to pull a 914 on the trailer, it works but takes forever, the come along you linked to is much better and faster. I’ve also used a uhaul open trailer (6x12) & furniture dollys to transport no suspension parts cars, the width barely accommodates a narrow body car,. Be smart, problem solve, and you should be fine. Good Luck! |
