I have found a very good deal on a 90 Civic hatch that I want to use as a project car. It is about 300 miles away and I was wondering if it is safe and possible to tow the car. The car weighs around 1800 lbs and again its only a 300 mile trip across completely flat land. I would take some of our other cars but theyre all having various problems. Where can I attach a hitch on the SC?

 

max towing capacity on an Sc is 2000lbs (Edmunds)... keep in mind the trailer too.

i wouldn't do it.... but if you decide to, take some pics. it would be entertaining to see a lexus towing a honda.

 

agreed - that would be a site to see....and that hitch...hope it doesn't ruin the look of u'r SC

 

i wanna see that. that would be bad ****

 

Dont forget to take pics why dont you go rent or borrow a truck from your family or freinds its only a 1 day trip anyway. The SC is a good towing Vehicle

 

hell yea crazy , funny

 

The hitch (Dalan) bolts directly to the frame. Take off the shipping hooks and it bolts right on. A very solid mounting. It may nead a bit of trimming if you have a big exhaust.

It is rated at "lower of vehicle spec or 2,500lbs gross and 200lbs tongue". It is a 1 1/4" reciever type hitch which means no ball hanging off when not in use.

I use it for track tires ..either 3x 50lbs on a hitch carrier or 7 tires + stuff on a 200lbs trailer. Love that full sized spare well.
