Would SFA improve towing?

[ZackDanger]

You need a side frame rail trailer hitch and heavier duty springs.

Then, serious answer, buy a one to two million dollar liability policy in case you get sued after an accident for exceeding the manufactures tow rating, the policies are only $300-$400 per year from your insurance company.

There’s no way that policy would pay out if the damage was the result of negligence.

Rear frame.

Actually @North7 , I put one of these on my '51 F-1 for the sole purpose of another semi-crossmember right at the end of the frame rails.

Excellent since the F-1 frame is an open rail end, 70 years later, Ford did the same on the Bronco

Shu, I didn't want to bring up that part.

Thanks for that frame pic - forgot about that one.

*Surprised* That this theoretical exercise would be moved to actual Towing room. . I chose that "Off topic" because it was just an exercise.

Don't forget wheelbase plays a factor here too.

Of course, "tail wagging the dog".
