Just received my tow bar from Jeremy this week. Looking forward to towing a few dead buses.

Jeremy can handle his way around international shipping!

Got my hitch from Jeremy a few months ago and ran into some clearance issues with my exhaust. I knew with my header there was a chance it wasn’t going to fit, so when I went to bolt it up I wasn’t too surprised.

So with some fabrication help from my buddy Ryan Halbasch (www.facebook.com/halbaschfab) he managed to make a small modification to allow the muffler to bolt up to the header. In the end everything worked out just fine, and I’m very happy with the Hitch.

So making this hitch work with a header system is possible! Thanks Jeremy Smile

Nice mod. Thats the most common question i get is "will it work with my header?" I tell people it has been done but most likely it won't.

I bought a tow bar off of Jeremy for my 68 Westy. It looks amazing. Well worth the money. I have not tested it yet, I was waiting for my rear shocks to come in. Do I need to bungee cord the steering wheel or something. I read that you needed to rig up the wheel so it would center after making a turn.

Don't tie the steering wheel it should cnter itself whil towing as long as the alignment is correct.

Another satisfied costumer. I towed this beast home from Waynesboro PA to Long Island about 275 miles without a single issue, the real test was crossing through lower Manhattan where I hit some serious pot holes and the towbar stayed strong.

I purchased a Towbar from Jeremy, and I am more than happy with it. Jeremy answered all my questions very quickly, made and shipped the bar very quickly, so the overall expewreince was fast and easy. The tow bar is heavy duty, easy to take apart and reassemble, fits my VW Bus axle perfectly. The only thing I would change, and this is not because I have had any problems with it, I guess it is just personal preference, The only thing I would change would be to have bigger, thicker "L" shaped pins and retention pins.

Thanks Jeremy, for a smooth and effortless transaction and a quality made product.

Had a chance to use it for the first time on Saturday. I towed my 68 Westy to paint shop to get repainted. I pulled it about 100 feet and made a right hand turn. It bucked and clanked around for a another 20 feet after the turn and was perfect the next 30 miles. Not sure if the bar did not center itself on the axel or what. The front wheels made the turn and straightened out. Has anybody else ever had it buck after making a turn? I made 20 more turns without any issues. I am glad I bought this tow bar. Thanks

I got one of Jeremy's early bay hitches, wow, what a well thought out design and excellent fit and finish. I'm planning on towing my notchback behind the Westy after I upgrade the clutch. I have little doubt that it will be up to the task. Oh yeah, the hitch works perfectly as a rear hanger for the Honda K20 motor that I just installed Twisted Evil
