Picked up my sled today on a single place tilt sled trailer, tows incredibly well. Hitch install was easy, but I had to splice all of the wiring for the trailer hookup.
Yeah, these cars actually are pretty stable. Plus any good hitch product bolts right to the unibody. This just get better with mods too. Firmer springs, sways, bushings, tires all reduce roll and sway and make the car more planted. The only real concern is tongue weight. These aren't heavy cars and too much weight will unload the front tires and cause traction issues.
here's me last year: She's a bit big for a single-sled but it was the only trailer I had access to at the time. I've since picked up a 4x8 which is a lot easier, but this one worked pretty darn well.
Could you take a picture with out the trailer, been looking at getting one but wasn't sure how it would look with the bumpers of the newer body sti/wrx.
Hatch and Sedan are different. I'll see if I can get some pics of my buddies 11 STi sedan with a hitch. You can barely tell the hitch is there unless you are looking for it.
If you could that would be great. looking to pull a small trailer for track days so I can bring more gear just in case.
That's awesome. There weren't any hitches for the dual-exhaust cars when I bought mine - which is why I went with the 09.
thanks for putting up the pics. It tucks up nice and tight likes like I'll be order one up here in a couple of weeks, along with a trailer.
