Ron... what is the load capacity of the hitch you sell... load and tongue weights please. And for the list... how much can a vanagon reasonably tow... I know the big issue is brakes, but is there a towing load rating somewhere?

Sounds a bit like the one I sell for about $170 (but am presently out of stock on), although mine is OE Volkswagen/South Africa. Mine has been described on the Vanagon list before. If it is indeed basically the same, this might give anyone interested in buying his unit an idea of its value.
