Just make sure you speak with FFR and get instructions on how to secure the trailer with U-Haul. THe local U-Haul guys in our area I know in the past has denied renting the trailer for certain uses.

As an example, when I asked the Morristown U-Haul office to rent a trailer to tow a Cobra, they indicated the car was not in theri data base and would not rent the trailer for that use. I then tried to rent the trailer stating I needed to tow another one of may cars, a TVR, they once again refused to rent it to me.

I do believe if you state it is a AC or Triumph, that should fly. But once again, check with FFR for advice. Hate to have you run into the same problem I had.

This is right u-haul really screwd me last month!!I too have a dodge dakota 4x4 with the 318 and tow package.The owners manual says I can tow 7200 lbs.I reserved the car trailer a week in advance and told them I would be towing my roush mustang,they said no problem.Well on the day I was to leave I went to pick it up and they said it was an unsafe hook up and would not rent to me.Those aholes said my truck could only tow 3750 lbs and the trailer weighs 2000#'s so the payload could only be 1750#'s.They really screwed myself up as I needed to be in michigan for a triatholon for Roush the next day!!
So we loaded up the mustang and drove her out instead of traillering.


Delin be absolutely sure u-haul will rent to you before you leave to pickup the kit.

Also I live in central Ma. so if you find yourself in a bind let me know maybe I can help out.

Maybe try taylor rental also.
