    Default Adding a trailer hitch to my 'Vette...

    Where can I find a company that still supplies a Reese "draw tite" style hitch for a C4? I can't seem to find them anywhere, yet I've seen them on vehicles and I've heard mention of them online.

    I have some tree stumps in my yard and I figure this is the perfect combo to rip them out.

    and before someone bites on that, I was totally kidding about the stumps. I just wanna pull a single wave runner.

    Can someone delete this thread? I just found a bunch of crap using the search. Turns out, when I was trying it before, I made a spelling error.

    TIA.

    Default Get the Hitch

    Go ahead and get the hitch then you can tow Mustangs or Vipers as fast as a Corvette

    FInd a local shop that specializes in trailer hitches. I had a custom hide-a-hitch type made for my 92 vette that pulls my 2000lbs race boat. Should not be a problem for someone to make one for a jet ski or personal watercraft. Tongue weight is what you have to watch out for. I have my boat and trailer combo set up to have only 50lbs of tongue weight. I only pull mine 8 miles to the lake also.

    A member had one for sale here, a while back. While initially interested, I changed my mind.
