Towing 07032008 001a.jpg
Towing outfit201 viewsTowing our Trailcraft 5.4m "Panorama Dirt Road" caravan (March 2008).

Heavy duty springs and 150mm hitch riser on LR "plough" has made the outfit level. There's a slight nose-up attitude and some pitching front and back whilst under-way. We're looking forward to taking delivery of a Mitchell Bros towbar so that we can use our Hayman Reece weight distribution hitch (which will correct the nose-up and reduce the front-back pitch).
