GBMUD Posted November 6, 2008 Share Posted November 6, 2008 I am particularly interested in the answer to q1., which seems to suggest that one cannot tow a 3500kg trailer with, for example, a lorry. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J@mes Posted November 7, 2008 Author Share Posted November 7, 2008 OK thanks for the replies - tow ball mounting is out, will be looking for a decent winch bumper unless there is a way to modify the standard one to house the winch where it would be on a winch bumper? thanks!

b101uk Posted November 7, 2008 Share Posted November 7, 2008 I am particularly interested in the answer to q1., which seems to suggest that one cannot tow a 3500kg trailer with, for example, a lorry.Chris Q1 = B: 3432kg putting a 3500kg trailer behind a 7500kg truck would be D = 23.41KN thus the towing hitch would need at lest a D value or Dc value of 23.41KN at 3500kg trailer weight.
