Thread: Pushing CT up steep amp in revers

I don't think it will be a problem, it's not as if you are reversing your campertrailer up Mt Everset...
I'll leave any "technical" details about reverse gearing to more knowledgeable members on here - but if it were me I wouldn't be worried.
cheers

If it is steep i would use low range.

You probably have nothing to worry about.

Thanks gentlemen didn't think I could use LR in revers that's a good tip though will do that as it feels quite heavy going up in normal revers

Steve, I reverse two very heavy trailers up into our shed, and always use low for this. I also have to adjust the air suspension to make the rear top of trailer pass under the structural beams.....lift up so that the rear drops a bit, then back down again so that the air con is then not torn off.

Have been doing low range reverse for 8 years now, 5 in a patrol, 2 in my Touareg, and 1 year with the Disco....I reckon you will be fine.

Brett....

Thanks Brett will actually try this now, getting CT ready for Holliday on Friday:-)

Just make sure if you have manual over ride brakes on the CT that you put the tab down so the brakes don't come on while reversing making it even harder.

Speaking from experience here ...

cheers,
Terry

Yes making sure of that, also speaking from experience here :-)

Actually zip tightened it down now

Do you zip tie it down every time you revers?? Or have you locked it down all the time? so NO brakes when driving.
