Using a Draw-Tite Tow Bar to Flat Tow a 1969 Chevrolet G10 Van
Question:
I have a Draw Tite tow bar, #33-305-1368 SAE Class 3, 2ball adjustable with a 5.5X2inch attachment plates with two 1/2inch bolts per connection plate. I need the attachment plates for the tow vehicle. It is a 1969 Chevy Van G10 3000# total weight. I can send a picture of the bumper frame rails if that would help. Thanks

Expert Reply:
Before towing your 1969 G10 you'll want to do some research (if you haven't already) and make sure it can be flat towed without causing any damage to it. We do not have a custom base plate kit for the G10. So you'll need to use universal bolt-on brakets # BX88230. Once these are installed the adapter # BX8833 connect the base plate brackets to a Draw-Tite tow bar.
