Default Did anyone install a hitch on their A4...

...I'm trying to pull a waverunner with my 03 1.8T A4 and I was wondering if that is something that's possible?

Interesting. I was halfway considering the same thing. But I couldn't decide if that was something I even wanted to entertain. What are you doing at Hurlburt? Air Force I'm assuming?

You can put a hitch on anything. Probably not a great idea on an audi. Theyre not really designed for that.

i know a waverunner doesnt weigh that much...but dankhound is right...these cars along with most cars ie honda/toyota and similar cars dont have much to attach to in the rear and have been know to pull the body in one direction or the other...so could mess up the rear end alignment along with making the car pull.... to me as a performace guy i wouldnt want to buy it with a hitch on it...who knows what they have really pulled with the car...and also prolly more wear and tear on your clutch and driveline

you have a nice car....why not just find some old school mazda b2000 or b2200 and use that for a hauler for whatever you need..plus are cheap and there is plenty of parts for them if it breaks...would pull that waverunner like a champ and save the nice car cruising
