I tow a 1985 VW Van Camper behind my MCI-9...I installed a tow-bar and found it [the VW] to be very, VERY unstable... oscillating widely from side to side at even the slowest of speeds. I have been using a tow-dolly but I would like to be able to tow the VW 4 wheels down.The VW is like a bus, in that it has a rear wheel drive, rear engine and a cab that is ahead of the steering axel making it very light in the front end when no one is inside. It also has"top-heavy" characteristics and gets "pushed" from side to side in a cross wind.My question is... Can this be fixed to "Safely" tow 4 wheels down or am I doomed to a tow-dolly because of some sort of inherent characteristics within the VW that causes it to be just un-towable 4 wheels down...?Any request for more detailed info about this problem, comments or suggestions would be welcomed.ThanksSteve
The tow bar I had clipped onto the front axle as I recall. They were made specifically for the VW and only fit a VW. U shapped devices on each side of the bar on aproximately 2" tubing that came out from under the bumper and then up 6-8 inches and then forward to the hitch. I would recommend you try and find one of these. Richard
