        Heavy-Duty Syncro and Vanagon Trailer Hitch for Metal Bumper

        BACK IN STOCK!

        We know that our customers love to play! That is why we designed a heavy-duty high clearance hitch for those who want to put a motorcycle rack or another type of heavy-accessory load that will be cantilevered from the hitch. This model is also recommended for towing a heavy trailer. This model trailer hitch has a capacity of 350 lbs. tongue weight but weighs only 10 lbs. more than our standard model.

        Installation instructions that are necessary for proper installation can be found in DOWNLOADS below.

        As always, we are proud to say that this product is made Burley, right here in the USA!

        *This will fit all engines and conversions, it bolts directly to the van – not the engine or carrier bars.

        **This hitch will fit all standard Vanagon or Syncro with OEM type steel bumpers. 

        Fits
        2WD Vanagon
        4WD Syncro

        If you have a fiberglass bumper, please see the Heavy-duty, High Clearance Trailer Hitch for Fiberglass Bumper.

          Burley Your hitch is a beast, would pull my house if I could hook it up. I ended up using a regular 4" drop hitch cause the weight distribution sway control hitch I got did not drop far enough. The front end sat a couple inches high but even so the trailer performed well. No issues with sway. I will be getting the correct shank for my hitch though to bring the front back to normal. Was pretty happy with the Syncro's performance also. Started out slow but settled in cruising around 60 in the slow lane with no problem. Could have done 70 if I wanted. Trailer brakes did their job, never had to downshift in 400 miles. Plan on going to Florida in January. Thanks again for getting the hitch to me so quickly, it is more than adequate for the task. John
