Adding advantage
I doubt Jimmyfloyd and I will ever see the track and race. But I ensured stacking the deck this past weekend. Right before he tried to leave I slipped 45 pounds of trailer hitch in his car

With my 87 Bonnie, before the transmission took a puke, I towed home the donor Bonnie with my 87. LMAO
I did the 90 mile drove with it in tow on the dolly! 
I'm a little easier on the 99. The biggest load I've towed is a garden tractor on a utility trailer back from New York state this past fall. Wasn't bad, but I could definitely feel the load back there!

The largest I have seen for the 87-99 bonnies is a 3000 lb hitch... I'm just one of those guys that would want a 5000 lb hitch, and never tow that much...LMAO
I may get a 3000lb hitch one day, but it would have to have a removeable ball... Don't want a whole ball thingy hanging out back there..

Mine is a Class II reciever. Very similar to this:

It'* the baby hitch that I weighed Geoff down with. The guy told me he hauled his boat with it.
Bill.. on the 95 I lowered the exhaust and snuck up there to get it out. But I think to properly install it (at least the one I had) you need to pull the bumper to put squared U bolts into the body. Although I've never popped off the bumper..most make it sound easy.
