GT towing a Jet Ski??

Post by RcRacer440 »

Has anyone put a hitch on a GT and pulled a jet ski or know if it would be possible. I have a new high performance ACT clutch but I just wanna know if anyone has had any experience.

Well I would never reccommend towing anything with a manual transmission since your GT has lift and 6 gears. That puts a lot of tug on the frame and hitch, not saying you'd hit lift with a trailor lol.But you need to look at the towing capacity of your Vibe and the weight of your trailer + Jetski...Even if it was not heavy enough, I still wouldn't tow but thats just my opinion.

Hm...considering I was going to get a hitch and a uhaul trailer to move some stuff from Jersey... argh..My father towed a 4x8 uhail trailer cross country with his Saab 9-3 a year or so ago...i'm sure if that turbo survived, the Vibe should...but yeah, I wouldn't go hitting lift..
