FS: Evo Trailer Hitch & Trailer

Custom made Evo Trailer Hitch. Mounts to rear bumper hardware and rear tow hook. Uses factory hardware plus you'll need to get one u-bolt to fasten it to the tow hook. I bought it from someone who used it for 1/2 a season and then sold their car. I never hooked it up to my car, but I saw it on their car and it was a perfect fit and worked well. Selling for $125 + shipping (firm).

Harbor Freight utility trailer w/12 inch wheels:



I bought this as an autocross tire trailer and used it (with my other autocross car) about 3 times (300 miles total). This is the model with the larger diameter 12" tires (better for higher speeds). These cost $230 new (plus shipping). Selling for $160 picked up (firm). This is too big to ship in an assembled state, so buyer will have to come pick it up from my house in Northern Virginia.

Please PM me if you have any questions.

Thanks!
Rich

You can two wheel tow a 4wd vehicle?

No, this is a trailer that you would pull with your Evo. Vishnu did it for the C&D shootout. You put a hitch on your Evo, and tow this trailer from track to track with your race tire and mayber a tank of race fuel on it. This is for people who can't afford an F-250 and a full car trailer.

We know about the weight issues, that's why you should only pull a set of wheels/tires and maybe some race gas.

Got any pics of the hitch on the car? Would you need to trim the bumper or modify other parts? Definitely interested.

I bought this from Chris Woolard and never used it, but I did check it out on his car before buying and saw how it mounted. I am 99% sure that there is nothing to modify on the car to make it fit (he certainly didn't mention anything and I asked a lot of questions). It mounts using existing bolts that hold the rear cross bar under the bumper cover, plus a u-bolt that holds it to the rear tow hook. It's a very slick installation. He used it with a trailer about the size of the one I'm selling and had 4 tires and a tool box. He had no problems with it. Whoever designed it was very smart.

Someone else asked for pictures, so I'm going to work on that this weekend. Stay tuned.

Thanks,
Rich
