WrenchandRip

Wrench, rip, break, repeat. Watch a bunch of good friends and not-quite-professional mechanics fix up mini bikes, quads, go karts, and anything else we can get our hands on. Then, watch us rip them around and break them again.

Repairs, restorations, modifications, how-to's, rowdy rips, and overall good times.

    Thankyou great info here. Curious, does having a tow hitch installed on your Mazda 3 void any kind of power train, transmission or suspension warranty coverage?

  • @wrenchandrip
    @wrenchandrip5 күн бұрын

    I don’t think it would. The care is rated and approved for a specific amount of tongue and towing weight. As long as you stay within the manufacturer guidelines I assume it would be fine!

    spatter or bb(s) you can decrease wire speed or increase voltage. make sure materials clean, which yours looked clean in video,, invest in shielding gas, and spray with anti spatter, as old as the video is youve probably mastered this .. but good work!

    I am installing a trailer hitch myself on my camry this weekend. I have a small stick steer boat with 25 horse mercury on it. I was gonna wait till I get a truck to go fishing in a couple of months, but why Waite? I'm ready to fish now. Only towing it about 10 miles round trip, hope this don't mess my car up.

    Great video W&R! I have a 2022 Mazda3 sedan and after spending some time in the Sierra Nevada last year, I decided that I'd love to have a SxS or a cheaper sporty ATV. Now I know that it's possible to tow without needing a CX-30😃 You definitely have more know-how than I do though so I hope you don't mind flying out to California to do the necessary modifications for me:D I'll put you up in the finest Motel6 one can find😄 I'm assuming the hitch is a 1/4"?

    I have heard of that being a risk for complex computerized vehicles, but only if you have the ground on the other side of the car or something (forcing it to travel through the car and electronics). On a go kart i think you are pretty much good to go!

    I may have be moving from Chattanooga to either Phoenix or Eastern NC which is about 1800 miles to Phoenix and about 600 to NC. I too have a standard in my '18 3 Touring with the 2.5l. Would you theoretically say that I could haul a trailer of that size with some totes that are lighter, leaving the heavier stuff in the car with me? Any advice would be appreciated!

    Yeah definitely. I would actually recommend putting more of the heavy items on the trailer rather than in the car. Let the trailer carry most of the weight so the car suspension isnt as compressed. Hope that helps!
