[Rhodes22-list] Changes in weight distribution (towing/backing up)

[Bob and Kathy Quinn]

Should have no problems at all.  I towed our first R22, an '86, with a Volvo Bertone V6 - it did cost me a transmission but it was the only car I had at the time.  I towed it home for its annual clean up and for hurricane avoidance.  Our driveway also had an incline.  


Never had a towing problem.  Yes, I was happy to move to a SUV but the Volvo did the job.

Hello,

I'm towing my '84 R22 with a Jeep Liberty CRD (diesel).

Should I be concerned about change in weight distribution when trying to
back up my new-to-me R22 when the driveway has a short incline?

My concern is while backing up the driveway, the 2900 lb boat will increase
tongue weight to a point that will make me loose control of the situation.

Thanks in advance!
