Tow Bar

Postby Ken » 10 Thu May, 2012 10:06 am

So I am looking at picking up a T1 tow bar.
I know it's not for all situations, but seems like a good backup plan to have available.

I expect an off the shelf t1 tow bar will need some adjusting to fit my rail front end.
Could someone that has one of these, take a couple measurements for me, so I know what to expect?
Much appreciated.

Thanks Brian.

I sure would like to find one, for my June beach run.
We'll be at the Monument Show, do they have a swap meet at this show?

I gave mine away because I bought a trailer, but I sold my trailer and now I wish I had my tow bar. What a bummer!

I think they are pretty cheap? Where is your nearest VW supplier?
