Re: [T3] towing


Ive towed alot with mine but its a beefy hitch that uses the enginebody
mounts for strength.  most of us dont have strong enough rear bumpermounts
for ANY hitch  as they rust easily.
     You also need FULL ENGINE INSTRUMENTATION otherwise you have no idea
how hard you can push (or pull) it without overheating it or causing engine
damage. REMEMBER... you asking alot more out of the engine without
increasing its cooling, and if you drive slower in the same gear your
decreasing the cooling.  This will FRY most of the larger motors in the
summer.  You really have to be careful here when towing in the heat.
