Trailer Loading Help

[Jared_Rouse_o6]

Hi all, tomorrow i am going to go purchase a parts 1999 4runner. the guy selling to me said it doesnt run, so my problem is that i do not have a winch to get the truck onto the trailer. I know i could use a come along but just wondering if that is the best way or not. Just trying to think of maybe an easier way to load it, I've used a come along to load a 1992 toyota pick up once and it wasnt fun. but any ideas or tips would be appreciated.

Bring a friend with a winch and snatch block.

Do you have AAA or another roadside assistance membership? You can just call for a tow, should be free if it's not too far.

Even if you have to pay it may be worth it. Were you planning on renting a trailer to tow it?

air up the tires, make sure the brakes work, load downhill if possible, have some help- its too unsafe for just one person, use a good come-a-long. I have loaded a few this way and it does not have to be really difficult.
