All,
I now know more than I care to about towing requirements for a 1997 Chevy
S-10.
The standard 2 inch ball that you can put onto the step up bumper will
accomodate 200 lbs. tongue weight and 2000 lbs. tow weight. I am wondering
if Sid's solution would work out.
I went down to Pep Boys at lunch today and looked at some towing stuff.
2 inch ball: 9.99
Tow Bar 112.00
Wiring kit for Chevy s-10 8.50
Rear signal lights (Brake and turn signal) 24.95
Would this and some safety chains be all that I would need? How problematic
is it to fabricate a connection from the car to the tow bar? The tow bar is
V shaped and adjusts to widths from 24-40 inches. It comes with some
shackles to mount it to the axle I guess.
Thoughts?
