no.

 i scored a sweet set of firestone destination at's today they have 4k miles on them and they're the right size for the truck.  found the source of my fuel leak today, there's a sprite can glued to the filler neck.  i'll have to take pics of it when i go to pull it down.

last owner.  he thought he was a mechanic and went to change the fuel pump himself.  the new filler neck was ordered from chevy today.  i think it might be my sat project.

Uhh, NO! On a trailer you should be somewhere around 3500,  but a stock zuk is about 2100. A single axle trailer will handle a zuk, I wanted a tandem just for the room and safety factor. If you go with a single axle, I would go for a 5k capacity and HD tires.

the zuk isn't going to be stock.  it's going to have full width axles, min 36" tires. and lots of tubing.

my 4wd switch came in today.  after i fix my filler neck and due the tune up tomorrow, i may be ready to actually have a nice driver.
