    My wife needs to travel from Portland, Oregon 413 miles to NE WA where we live pulling the above listed trailer behind my '96 Toyota 4 Runner with a 5 speed manual transmission and 300,000 miles on the original 3.4L V-6.
    The hitch system takes a square 'stinger' with a 2" ball. I need some guidance whether this would be prudent given the miles on the motor. I want to make sure I'm not going to be looking at an engine rebuild when she returns.
    Thank you for any help you can provide!

    P.S. I'm new to this platform!
