My truck is in Palm Beach FL, Im in Gulfport MS. I would love to have my truck here, but my father and I were talking about since the truck has 33x12.50 would they fit in the tracks of a Uhaul car hauler or would the strap have enough room to fit around the tire. Anyone have any clue?

If he doesn't have his stock tires what then?

You'll be fine, 700mi is hardly anything to worry about. Just remove the drive shaft.
Why not just stick it in N? If its 4x4 check the manual...there is a why to drop the transfer case into N. Manual says it's for towing. Never done it personally but it's worth a look into. :shrug:

The truck is already more narrow than a full size so I would assume it to fit on a trailer. As for tire diameter, a quick call to U-Haul should answer if the straps are long enough.

Also check to see if there is a chassis method to tie the vehicle to the trailer instead of just relying on the wheels.

Put them on the trailer then air them down. My 31x1050's barely fit the uhaul straps. That's what i was going to try if they didnt fit.

haha trust me I wish, but Im at NCBC Gulfport and Im not allowed to leave. So hence the dilemma. Ive called in favors but the one kid and his gf I really trust both work 7 days a week. and my other friend said it was to long of a drive.

Well it's two wheel drive and everytime I has used a trailer it's like 10 dollars more for the trailer not the dolly. and I can leave I just can't fly home and pick it up otherwise I would

That's awesome. I knew a guy that owed a box van when i was in the army. Before we deployed his put his s10 and all his stuff in the back of it and stored his stuff that way.
