What has been you guys experience installing trailer hitches on late model
WBX Vanagons. Is it a simple install? What kind of payload can be towed
and what are the downsides/problems? Obviously the power is the biggest
problem, but what else? And how much lower would the hitch make the van on
a syncro?
I have a cow trailer that I use to transport various items... usually not
too heavy, although I recently brought in a couple tons of base coarse. I
use my Jeep (V8) with no problem, obviously, but am considering getting rid
of her and just using the Syncro. Thoughts?
