Brian there are several different tow bars that you can use. most people use the universal type tow bars uhaul, drawtite, and reese all make them. i use a older drawtite that is no longer made. to mount the brackets take the front bumper off by removing the 10mm bolts, then lay out the brackets. drill through front bumper beam and insert threaded rods and heavy washers through the beam and mount your brackets. when laying out the brackets make sure that when you drill through bumper box beam that you don't line your holes up with radiator brackets and such. good luck jonathan On Sun, 25 May 2003, Brian wrote: > Hey all, thanks for all the feedback with my previous questions...for > those of you who have happened to have used a tow bar on the Vanagon, > exactly which type of tow bar did you use..also, where exactly did you > mount the thing?
