openroad Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I have one of these available , with the holes perfectly drilled already. If anyone is contemplating doing this , maybe I have the answer for you. I have seen Trailers and even small caravans being TR towed, maybe a little unusual, but I am sure I will be corrected if not ! Cheers Conrad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lebro Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I used to tow a sailing dingy, & also (but not at the same time) a camping trailer full of frame tent behind my '3. Still got the tow bar, but not currently fitted. Bob. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ianc Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 In the early days of the club, Chris Sergison would arrive from the West country at meetings with a 2-wheel trailer. At that time, Chris had the smartest sidescreen TR in the UK - and he used it a lot! Ian Cornish Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chris dean Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 You don't have to drill the bumper, just run some angle iron from the chassis and it does the job. I pull my trailer tent with the 4, no problem Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rcreweread Posted February 5, 2019 Report Share Posted February 5, 2019 I fitted a tow bar to my TR4 in 1980 - it was from Watling Tow Bars and somewhere I know I have the original invoice and fitting instructions - but I had to drill the bumper for the tow hitch - 35 years later it was a real pain in the backside to fill the holes and straighten the distortion it caused. Towbar no longer in use but in the “pile of bits”! it was a very basic affair made out of angle iron which clamped around the chassis cross tubes but Urdu’s the trick and pulled another TR on a trailer all the way from Wales to Essex, and survived! cheers Rich Quote Link to post Share on other sites
