Re: [VAL] Re: Towing without and Equalizing hitch

[Dillonvdill@xxxxxxx]

My Grand parents towed their trailer with their 1955 Chrysler on Wally Byam 
Caravans without an equalizing hitch,  and through the years I have towed my 
vintage Airstreams without equalizing hitches and I have had a trailer blowout  
and at another time a rear wheel blow out on the tow car and have not lost 
control.  The manual over ride on the electric breaks kept everything straight as 
an arrow.  I would not consider towing a SOB trailer without one but A/S's 
are perfectly balanced the vintage ones from the fifties and the small newer 
ones are so
light,  who wants to man handle the spring bars if you have a solid tow 
vehicle?   With an A/S
I like the fact that I can just drop the trailer on a moments notice and not 
hurt my poor ol' back grunting with equilizer springs.  Am I going to need a 
Hensely hitch to tow the Bambi I'm looking at?
