    We need a fabricator to make a few copy's of my hitch. Maybe if there's enough interest in a dozen or more I'll look into it. I'll get some pics this week and start a group buy interest post.

      $50?!? An intro to me should be worth $100 (or more). $25 discount for supermodels (but not THAT Supermodel!).

      The pain will doubtless be well-deserved; but it will save you some time in Purgatory. Word on the street is that being married a week saves about 100 years in Purgatory, depending the the quality/frequency of the sex.

      Glad this thread hasn't wandered away from the original point or anything....

        Well I'd definitely be interested in a proper HD hitch. My Curt hitch is fine for small load trailering and bike racks, but I'll need a better one for the bigger things I plan to haul.

        Glad your new trailer is working out, John! Thanks for the pics.

              I wouldnt mind being able to pull maybe 1000 lbs at the most. Easier than having a ton of crap in the back getting the interior nasty.

                Let's not forget a brake upgrade while we're at it.

                  Capri brakes ftW. Still need a rear upgrade though.

                  Yeah, I would NOT tow with festy brakes. I dont even know if I would tow with a B3.

                          Unless you're towing tank carriers, I would think a good Aspire brake setup would work just fine. My tow/work car will have the auto front calipers (Rio) and rotors for a little extra safety. Engine should be B6. That should do it.
