I tow with a Toyota 4-Runner which is a mid sized SUV. While it would
appear to be a good choice for towing I found 60 to be the limit before sway would start. I believe the problem is that even though it has fairly heavy suspension you can still induce sideways movement by pushing with one finger on the rear of the vehicle. After trying every solution I could think of I finally changed the trailer connector to Al-Ko AKS 1300 Stabilizer, which works by pad pressure to the ball. http://tinyurl.com/yvjhve Towing is now stable up to the max speed of the vehicle, which with a 6 cylinder engine and trailer in tow is 85. While pricey at $250 for the connector and special ball coupler it is cheaper than unwrapping the car/trailer from a tree. |
