towing with my wrx
so from other threads i see its not great to tow with your wrx but you still can. thats what i have got from everything. u hual wants over 300 to install a hitch receiver. can i just buy one and have someone weld it on for me? is it easy? where and how do i weld it to? (will be towing a single dirtbike)
also what do you guys think about the single rack that hold dirtbikes that goes in side ways (http://www.rampconnection.com/dirt-b...-carrier-4.jpg) straight into the hitch. would my suspension go down like crazy? would i look like a dumbass lol
any help would be much appreciated!

I just bought a Curt class 1 hitch, that should be plenty to tow a single bike on a trailer. It's bolt on, should be in place this weekend. It's rated at 200lb tongue weight and 2000 total, which again... should be plenty for a bike.
Here's a link with some install pics.

perfect! thank you so much. how do you think that would do with one of those single track hitch things that go in sideways and hold the bike sideways?
