A-Frame towing

 
Jimny 19 Frame close up.jpg

Many motorhome owners like the convenience of having a small car for running errands and exploring places where motorhomes fear to tread - there's no way you can get a motorhome down to that special fishing spot.

There is absolutely no easier way to have a second vehicle with you than to flat tow it. Single driver, no trailer, no trailer parking, no trailer registration. The wheels are on the ground when and where you want them: just pull the pins and drive away.

An A-frame provides a level of freedom and versatility unmatched by any motorhome alone, and is cheaper than any other towing solution (trailers, dollies).


Unlike conventional trailers, an A-Frame pulls the car behind the motor home on the car's own wheels. It can be stored easily and involves the least amount of towing equipment. An A-Frame also takes up fewer parking spaces than a trailer or dolly. Hitch'n'Go A-frames are solid, welded units with arms that fold together for easy storage.

Because of their relative simplicity, Hitch'n'Go A-frames are the lightest, quickest, easiest and cheapest towing equipment an RV enthusiast can buy.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need an Engineer?

Hitch’n’Go A-frames are engineer-certified up to 1900 kgs. This certificate is required to be carried with the towed vehicle at all times.

Residents of NSW and WA are required to undertake additional steps beyond installation to fully certify a Hitch’n’Go system.

Vehicles registered in NSW are required to undergo a secondary engineers’ inspection of the motorhome and towed vehicle connected and operational.

Vehicles registered in WA require written permission from WA Transport to engage a Hitch’n’Go, as well as secondary inspection at an approved inspection station.


Are hitch’n’go A-frames accepted by all transport authorities?

Yes, all Hitch’n’Go A-frames comply with applicable requirements of ADR 62/01 nationwide.

Hitch'N'Go A–frames comply fully with all aspects of state traffic authority requirements. WA Transport require prior written application to be made.


Do I need brakes?

Every state and territory in Australia has specific requirements regarding flat-towing vehicles. We have laboured to produce a product that is lawful to use nationwide.

As such, we stipulate that any towed vehicle with an Aggregate Total Mass (ATM) weight of greater than 750kg be fitted with a braked A-frame.


How Do the brakes work?

The braking system is very simple and operates via a mechanical override method - like some caravans and boat trailers.

A cable is run from the A-frame coupling through the towed vehicle and attaches to the brake pedal via a clevis clip. When the motorhome brakes, the cable is pulled forward, pulling the pedal and applying the brakes of the towed vehicle as well.

This system is approved up to 2000kg in all states and territories.


Is a compliance plate supplied?

Yes. A compliance plate is attached to each A-frame. It records the date of manufacture and VIN of both vehicles.


Do I lock the steering?

No. The steering lock must be disengaged. On some older vehicles that means the key will be in the “accessories” position.


Will my odometer keep ticking over?

Some older vehicles with manual odometers will accumulate kilometres. Later model vehicles with electronic speedometers will not accumulate kilometres whilst the ignition is off. 


Can I fit the Hitch’n’GO MYSELF?

No. State traffic authorities and our warranty conditions require that the mount kit brackets, cabling and wiring can only be installed by an appointed distributor who is trained by us in the critical aspects of installation.


What about my 24V motorhome?

A voltage reducer may be necessary. This is an electronic unit which reduces 24 volts to 12 and is generally fitted to the rear of the motor home. Upon request, we can provide a quality Australian-made unit with the kit.


I have a nudge bar / bull bar attached to my vehicle - will this be a problem?

Every bar is different, and will have to be assessed individually. However many will interfere with the mount kit and may have to be modified or removed.

A factory-fitted nudge bar fitted to a 2006-onwards Suzuki Grand Vitara is a known issue, and an adaptor plate is available to allow the mount kit to function normally.


How can I protect my towed car from stone chipping?

We sell a quality Stoneguard product designed specifically to work with the Hitch’n’Go A-frame. Manufactured from high-grade aluminium and woven material, the Stoneguard requires no tools to attach and no heavier or more difficult than a camping chair.
