Would it be okay to tow with LT1's? I'm looking to get a tow hitch for my car, it's an M6, would it be bad to tow a 320lb 650sx stand up jet ski? would this cause any significant damage to the drivetrain/powertrain? i know some of you are going to say just get a truck but I can't lol i wish i had the money to but i gotta work with what i got. |
If i seen you Id just shoot you!! But it can be done Please dont !!! |
there is a guy that go's around from body shop to bodyshop working/pinstripping cars out of a 00' T/A firehawk! in this town with a tow hitch set up installed and tows a small trailer...and some times his bass boat ...makes me fuking sick:barf::mullet::doublepuk To answer yes you can tow a small trailer,ski,or bike with it easily i would hope your not backing it into any salt water ....I'll trade you a truck capable of towing for it. |
r u mexican? And NOOOOOOO to answer that |
lol yes you can but is it right??? NO!!!!! |
LOL, I cannot believe all the negative attitudes. Follow the info in the owner's manual about towing and you should be fine. |

But this thread deserves "You might be a red neck if..........." |
wow...flamed! lol I would've thought that it'd be okay cause i figured that i'd be hauling a total of less than 400 lbs, which is about the same amount as having about 3 passengers...and i wouldn't be loading/unloading on a high grade dock, it'd be parked and the trailer is a beach dolley/trailer so i'd just roll it to the lake. But like the OP says, would this cause any significant damage to the drivetrain? the only difference (that i can think of) of the weight, is that the weight is solely on the rear end of the car where as if i had 3 passengers (equalling out to about 400 lbs) the weight would be equally distributed throughout the car. please enlighten me, don't just comment with0 opinions and remarks without giving reasons. |
dude youll be fine. |

http://www.cars.com/chevrolet/camaro/1995/specs/ Cars.com says its rated for a 1,000lb trailer. Check on the weight of the trailer and jetski combined, some trailers are heavier than you'd think. |
You mean like this? I towed both of these things 500 miles from Connecticut to West Virginia, and both times the car was completely loaded down with food/clothes for the semester. Towed fine, but you definitley felt it. I still have the hitch, and am looking to sell it. With a standup jetski in a not loaded down car, you will be fine. http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0130_large.jpg http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0131_large.jpg http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0132_large.jpg http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0133_large.jpg http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0134_large.jpg http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_...0158_large.jpg |
lol i towed my girls 1996 pontiac sunfire 4 miles it did fine :) but i hated it |
please buy a shitbox for towing. your car is capable of it but please spare it. |
A Class I hitch (smallest you can get) is rated for 200lb tongue weight, towing 800 lbs. You wouldn't be anywhere close to either. |
