    Galant GTZ - hitch / towing

    Looking to move a 4 wheeler on a single axle small trailer. All I got is my galant. Obviously, no tow package but the load is relatively little and I do have a v6. not sure if there's a hitch out there that is common. Any suggestions/experiences?

    Thanks.

    Why rent a truck if you plan on moving it a few times?

    For the weight of the trailer and 4 wheeler, you probably only need Class 1 hitch.

    Curt Hitches and Rigid Hitch (based out of Minnesota) are both good choices.

    That one is a direct bolt on.

    A trailer is going to be about the same as having 4 really fat chicks in the car with you. Can the transmission handle it? Yes. Should you drive it with that weight and at WOT constantly? No.

    I think the fat chicks are heavier. LOL. But I see what you mean.

    Wouldn't a rental be cheaper than $200 bucks though?
