Has anyone towed a Classic Bronco with their SuperCab 6.2? 6K limit so depending on the trailer weight its right at its max. I can't seem to find any photos of this setup, maybe I'll be the first?

My 1974 Bronco should be back from paint in a few weeks and Im swapping the Hellcat out for a Raptor shortly.

Simple answer is no.

COOL PROJECT!

I'm no expert but looking at the trailer I'd be as worried about tongue weight as gross weight. Is towing it with a dolly-style trailer an option?

Sorry, no it wouldn't be that trailer. Thats an 3,330lb drop n load trailer a friend let me borrow. I would get a tandem axle open car trailer. Looks like @khcdave has towed his Bronco with his SuperCrew

I think you'll be fine... I picked up a'69 bronco for my mom a few months ago. Totlal basket case, but complete. My screw pulled it with ease.

I tow my vette on a 21ft open all steel trailer all over the country without any issue for drag week. Car, trailer and all of the Drag Week stuff is close to 7k if not over that. I do use a set of Firestone air bags though, only when towing. I have 12-5K miles towing alone on that setup...

I tow my 79 bronco all the time with my 2011. Sorry for the crappy photo buts it's all I have to show the combo. I have towed this home several times. I live 25 miles off the pavement. Hope this helps. 9aef810200d06a988e63fa30ab4d4c9e.jpg

Not a Bronco per se. The F100 weighs about 3200 lbs. Not sure about the Bronco. We also had the Raptor bed stuffed full of some heavy items. No issues, even over the Grapevine.
