I know. I know. Don't laugh. I've been meaning to post this for a few weeks. (After I drove to Dayton to pick up an engine and transmission in my dad's old Ford pickup truck. Yes, my Mustang has spoiled me.)

I was wondering if someone makes a hitch to tow a small trailer. (Maybe 4' x 6') It would be nice to have something like this to haul small items like engines and stuff, without having to have a pickup truck around. I would really like to have one that stays tucked under the bumper, out of sight, when not in use. A Class 1 (500# rating, I think) would be more than enough.

To make matters worse (funnier!), my Mustang will be getting the Eibach Pro-Kit, later this Summer. My girlfriend already thinks it would be funny to see a lowered Mustang pulling a trailer. She doesn't really even know about cars and see's the humor in it. :nonono: Grrrrr.
 
Don't worry about replying guys. By the time Rob goes to post again, 94-95 Land will have disowned him. :rlaugh:

Just messing.

I cannot offer help except to say that I have indeed seen a couple of 94-98's with hitches. They were not especially hidden however. You could just unbolt it, right?

Will there be a tongue issue with the car being so low? I have a Pro kit (with isolators) if you want something measured.

Good luck.
 
Custom make one. Get creative. Maybe make it in the trunk so it passes through under the license plate?

I was kind of considering that. If I do it, I'll make it come out through the "blackout" area, under the "Mustang GT" on the rear bumper. I can cover that with a peice of trim, when the hitch is not in use.


"Hail Mary" x 10, "Our Father" x 2 Will that get it done?

I would think that the sin would be absolved by toting engines and things around for my 'Stang and other manly projects. :shrug: It's not like I'll be hauling pretty flowers, Beanie Babies or Chevy parts around. :nono:

You guys are tough. :nonono:
 
One of my buddies dad is on this forum, and he has a trailer hitch on his new GT. He had to use a universal wiring harness for it and crap. You could try PMing him. His name on here is D.Hearne
 
Maybe look into a "Euro J hitch" (i think thats what they are called)

When not in use they tuck up behind the bumper, I know that some Audi All-roads come with them. Completely tucked away when not in use.
 
I have one for sale that is on a 1994 GT as I bought it with it on there and I will not be towing with it (previous owner in Cali towed his bike to a track a couple of times). Let me know if you want it. I am In Springboro, Ohio but the my car is in Columbus, Ohio (long story, just moved and the people who were supposed to close on my house down there a month ago still haven't...) Don't know how much they cost so make an offer it's in good condition...
 
I mdont think its a bad Idea since noone close to me has a truck to lend. also it would be able to tow my jetski.

I would want one that unbolts so you can save weight and it wont look so bad.

it would be nice to tow things.
 
ive got a hitch on my gt. its not really even noticeable. its tucked under the bumper and you can remove the bracket that the ball is bolted to. i got it to tow small things and i also have a 15 foot boat that i tow with it. i will say that the car will tow the boat as good as a smaller truck. i will post pics of the hitch. i got it from a local trailor shop and it cost me about 160 bucks installed.
