RE: [VACList] RE:1968 26ft overlander vs 1993 29ft classic

[Kevin D Allen <overlander64@xxxxxxxxx>]

Greetings  John!

I concur with Scott.  When towing either my '64 Overlander or '78 Argosy
Minuet 6.0 Metre; I always use my weight distribution bars as well as my
Dual Cam Sway Control (Overlander) or DrawTite Friction Sway Control
(Minuet).  In both cases, this is towing with my '99 GMC K2500 Suburban
with 10,000 lb. trailer towing package.  Granted, neither trailer causes
much more than 1" of deflection in the Suburban's suspension (actually
virtually none with the Minuet), but the Suburban rides and handles more
securely in all situations with the properly adjusted weight
distributing hitch.  I am a regular friend of "Murphy's Law" to which
Scott can attest, so I err on the conservative side with anything that
might impact the overall safety of my towing combination.
