Towing with a Legacy Turbo

Post by frinkmeister »

I am considering getting a camping trailer and I want to use my
Legacy Turbo to pull it. The trailer is about 1600lbs max. Is this
possible or will it cause problems especially with the turbo?

Thanks,
Peter

It is not a problem. The trailer hitch you can buy is a class 2 hitch. I think we are rated for 2500 lbs.
Do you have a hitch already? I have one for sale for 200 CDN if you live near me (Calgary area). Used 2 times then removed.

If you are using manual transmission, beware trashing cheap-japanese-
steel bearings (especially main bearing). Either manual or auto
recommend using synthetic tranny oil only if towing (Amsoil, Mobil-1
etc)
