Title: My tow vehicle for my 8.1
Post by: vmcmn on March 17, 2014, 09:29:50 PM
This is my 2007 Chevy HHR 2.2 that I have set up for towing my 8.1. I have added a transmission cooler along with bags to raise the rear when towing (since I have lowered the car) I have also installed a Hopkins Insight brake controller along with electric brakes on the trailer and larger diameter front rotors on the car. The car also has had Trifecta tune installed that was set up for my needs (helping with more torque from the engine and a reprogram on the transmission for more line pressure and better shifting when towing) I also installed my hitch with case hardened hardware for extra durability. My 8.1 looks good behind the HHR since they pretty much match in color  :D
