Trailer Hitch



Brett, I'm the proud owner of the DaLan hitch formerly on John 
Karasaki's 200 - now installed on my 1990 200.  If you're going to 
pull a boat with it, check the owner's manual.  My manual specifies 
a TOTAL gross weight of 950 pouns with my automatic.  Yours is a 
20V so it may differ, esp. if you have a 5-speed.

Installing the hitch was about a 4-hour job, but for someone who 
does them a lot in a prepared shop, an hour might do it.  The retail 
on a DaLan hitch is about $225.  It is a 1.5 inch receiver hitch, if 
memory serves.

One more thing - when installing, the rear muffler bracket needs to 
be cut back about 1/2" of material in the top 2" of the bracket 
nearest the hitch.  It will tap against the hitch otherwise.
