I've seen draw tite hitches on camaros before, they hang really low though to accomidate the sub frame and exhaust.

Ah, the Camaro is the best tow machine I ever used. And trust me, nobody tows with a Camaro as much as I do. I do 2800-mile round trips, towing boats all the time. Yes, in overdrive too. 80 MPH, and I get 20 MPG too. My car now has 120,000 miles and I never had a problem. I have Draw-Tite and it fits perfectly between my Borla.

If you want detailed pics of the hitch and how it installs, let me know.

Well, I checked out the rear subframe today. They (GM) just uses some thin sheet metal and form the rear subframes from this.

I'm curious to see how these hitches mount on now after examining my car a little better.

Here are some photos. It's bolted through, with large backing plates on the inside of the frame. There are three bolts on each side. It's not going anywhere, trust me - and I tow a 2000 pound rig with mine.

I'd definitely get a tranny cooler if I was planning on any towing.

You trailer is missing its liscence plate

Scream And Fly

Haha, it was a new trailer - I towed it from New York to southwest Florida and didn't get stopped once.

He said he wanted to pull a 600lb boat - about what just one typical jet ski weighs. That's little more than two or three fat friends riding with him. I think with a tranny cooler (just to be on the safe side) that a small boat like that should be a cake walk.

Scream And Fly

I was thinking he should get an F-350 Super Duty to pull his 600 lb. boat.

LagunaS3

LOL...no kidding...That might not be big enough. He might be looking at needing a CDL and Tractor/Trailer.

Four times a month??? I'll PM you my paypal address.

This is a 6-speed car with a spec III clutch.

I'm under the impression this would make a lot of people happy. Either that or I could move to a lake and always leave the boat in the water.

Anyway, I have decided to definitely get a hitch. I'll post about my towing experiences. My previous tow-vehicle was a th400, GMPP's 350HO '88 chevy pickup.

I'd venture to say something is probably wrong with your car then. ??? Other people tow boats, and yet your car is incapable to hauling 40lbs of cargo OVER the rear axle. Is all of your maintenance up to date?

The latest is I have located a hitch that I am interested in. It looks like the hitches will more than likely accomodate the majority of aftermarket exhaust systems.

Will post results/findings later.
