About this deal

Archived copy" (PDF). Archived (PDF) from the original on 11 July 2011 . Retrieved 31 August 2010. {{ cite web}}: CS1 maint: archived copy as title ( link) Noseweight is important for stable towing and the generally accepted figure is that the minimum noseweight of a trailer (or caravan) should be in the range of 5 per cent to 7 per cent of its MTPLM. For a caravan with an MTPLM of 1,500kg this works out at 75kg to 105kg. Dealer fit versus towbar specialist

The missiles can be fired from the ground using a tripod-mounted launch tube or installed on vehicles. The TOW missile system can be fitted as a single-tube pedestal mount on military vehicles or as two-tube or four-tube under-armour systems on vehicles such as the improved TOW vehicle M901, Desert Warrior, Piranha, US Marine Corps LAV, Dardo Hitfist and Bradley M2/M3. In the fall of 1958, the Army's Office of Ordnance Research and Development formed the Ad Hoc Working Group at the Ballistic Research Laboratories (BRL) to define a future replacement for the SS.10 and 11. The team included members from Picatinny Arsenal, Frankford Arsenal, Redstone Arsenal, Watervliet Arsenal, Detroit Arsenal and Harry Diamond Laboratories. The group almost immediately decided not to attempt to define a weapon concept, and instead spend the next two years studying the problem while researching the possibility of using alternative guidance systems and continually watching foreign developments where the US was lagging.

Alternative leads are obtainable from larger accessory shops, or from component specialists. The use of an adapter lead can make the caravan connections too long, and there is a risk of them dragging on the ground while travelling. Make sure that any such adapter lead includes all of the required wires for your caravan.

Some vehicles could be seriously damaged by the use of an inappropriate universal towbar wiring kit – with some others, the additional wiring would simply not work properly without extra components. Keeping up with this topic as new and revised models of vehicle are launched is a demanding task, and is certainly one which we do not have the resources to do. Most motorhomes can be fitted with a towbar but rear overhang and limited spare power may restrict what can be towed. Motorhomes may be built entirely on the unmodified chassis of the base vehicle, or on such a chassis with custom made extensions or on a vehicle where the original chassis has been completely replaced by a third party product, such as the AL-KO AMC chassis. The TOW missile in its current variations is not a fire-and-forget weapon and like most second-generation wire-guided missiles has Semi-Automatic Command Line of Sight guidance. This means that the guidance system is directly linked to the platform, and requires that the target be kept in the shooter's line of sight until the missile impacts. A fire-and-forget TOW variant (TOW-FF) was under development but was cancelled by the Army in 2002. [20] In September 2000, the US Army awarded an EMD (engineering and manufacturing development) contract for a wireless TOW fire-and-forget missile to Raytheon Systems Company. However, the US Army cancelled the project in 2002. Towbar manufacturers have risen to the challenge such that a wide range of towbars is now available for these newer vehicles. However, earlier motorhomes may still have the option of a pre-approval ready-made towbar from the likes of AL-KO and its subsidiary Sawiko which manufactures towbars for vehicles with and without frame extensions, and of course for those with the AMC chassis.

Ironically cars with bypass electrical systems are unlikely to have problems as the caravan's lights are not monitored by the car's computers. The relays simply act as switches and it matters little what type of bulb is on the other end. However these will not intregrate into the car lamp warning system. A bypass relay is necessary if you are fitting a universal wiring system in a modern car as they are different to older vehicles. To see how a bypass relay fits into your towbar electrics, please see our towbar bypass relay wiring diagram below.

All vehicles equipped with towbars are required to have some form of monitoring system for the trailer direction indicators, to confirm they are working correctly. N.B. All towing electric installations are required to have an audible or visual alert to tell the driver when the towed vehicle indicators are not working. If you are not using a 7 way bypass (which has a built in audible tell-tale) then another tell-tale should be installed. The most popular solution is a rear audio warning device which comes as standard in kits without a bypass relay. Ukraine says it took out 2 Russian T-72 tanks using a single US-supplied Bradley IFV. Business Insider.Mia. Jankowicz . 19 July 2023 The US Army placed the first production contract, with five one-year options, for the new wireless version of the TOW 2B RF missile in September 2006.

If you have this problem, consult your caravan dealership. They may be able to help you source a modification kit from the caravan manufacturer or the wiring loom supplier. These can be car specific so make sure you have exact details to hand. Our 7 pin towbar wiring diagram will help you visualise how the functions connect with towbar wiring colours. If so, a 7 Pin 12N Electrical Kit is needed. This will operate the trailer or caravan indicators, brake lights, fog lights and side lights. This kit has one connector on the towing vehicle.
