lowrider Posted March 5, 2014 Posted March 5, 2014 Is there anyone out there that has towed a 22 ft Oliver. Do you experience any problems with sway? I have towed extensively with sway control and weight distribution set ups. I just recently towed a 25 foot Big Foot with the Equilizer brand hitch and really liked the control I had with this setup. I know the Oliver is considerably lighter and shorter in length. Any experience or suggestions would be appreciated. Jerry
towbert Posted March 6, 2014 Posted March 6, 2014 Will let you know when we pick up our 22'. I just sold my 1,000/10,000 lb. Equalizer Brand Hitch on Craigslist. This WDH was from our 2012 Arctic Fox 25' that we sold in 2013. Just purchased a AirSafe Hitch for the Oliver with the intent of softening the stiff suspension on our Ram 2500.
lowrider Posted March 6, 2014 Author Posted March 6, 2014 Any idea when your trailer will be ready? I tow with a 2012 Tundra and the Bigfoot weighed in around 7200 lbs. No problems with bounce or sway. I sold my Equalizer with the trailer. Will be going to the factory soon.
towbert Posted March 7, 2014 Posted March 7, 2014 Mid-April, but there are two deliveries before ours. The Tundra should be more than you need, with a wide margin of error. Hopefully others will chime in when they are hooked up and on the road.
Moderator+ ScubaRx Posted March 7, 2014 Moderator+ Posted March 7, 2014 I'm planning to tow ours with my completely restored 1973 Cheverolet Vega GT, the one with the RPO L11 engine and Holley 5210C progressive two-barrel carburetor. It's a sweet ride and I think the combo will look super cool going down the road.
