Weight Distributing Hitch on a RWD brick

posted by  someone claiming to be Onkel Udo on  Tue Sep 15 01:08 CST 2009 [RELATED]

I am brickless at the moment it tends to make me sad. Granted, I can't drive anything at the moment as I am on a contract overseas...long story.

So I am trying to figure out how to reasonably tow one of these:

Keeping in mind that I will be "living" in it weekdays while at jobsites when I return. This will not be every week by any means but when I am in the 'States I tend to work short-medium term jobs where ever they pop up. Honestly, I am way tired of living in motel rooms...but anything is better than the tent I currently live in.

Back on point. Long term, I see the combo of a 940 non-turbo wagon, weight distributing hitch (WDH from now on) with a sway bar, and this trailer plus around 250#'s of my stuff. before you say it, this is planty of room for me...trust me. I live out of two suitcases most of the time

Problem: All the light duty WDH's I have found require a 2" receiver. Any ideas or sources for a 1 1/4 receiver WDH? I know the last resort is a custom welded hitch...or just breaking down and buying a Tacoma instead.
