It's the trans I would be worried about. Mine was burned up when I got it.
I know of folks towing a M101 with it with no problems. A 105 would worry
me.
Doesn't a 105 have deuce size tires?

Well Stu you might want to check that -10 again, the Blazer can tow a bit
more "Gross load will not exceed 10,000 pounds for M1009". You just don't go
very fast. Wayne
