On a side note, I think this has to be the most highly anticipated trailer hitch installation ever!

it's a start...

Another Pozzi original based on the factory design.

How heavy is your trailer going to be?
just wondering if you are pulling strictly from the bumper?

Never thought I'd say it but that's not bad. :unibrow:

it's just the start - it will be triangulated at the bottom as well and will be welded.
All told the trailer - loaded - will probably wind up being around 500 pounds - should be about 25 pounds on the tongue.

How about a tap and die set and spray can of cutting oil.
Spare fuses, wire and splices for electrical issues

Cool.. you know how some of our readers LOVE Camaros with trailer hitches.. lol

The good news is, I only had to drill two holes in the lower pan to get it on. With some black paint on it I hope it will not be so visible. This was fairly quick and easy and should be plenty strong enough for the weight we will tow. If I had more time, I'd make a square tube plug in version that could be left on the car, but this only requires 4 bolts and comes off easy. I need to start on the front hubs soon.

ZR1 Hubs
 
David

What is involved in switching to the ZR1 hubs? How are they different than standard C6 hubs, and what do you gain -- stronger I assume. Will they alter any of the front geometry (scrub radius, etc)? Thanks.
