Preparing to Tow
*
[DR36550(ALL)01/95]
For your safety and for the good of your vehicle, use the right
equipment for the type of trailer you tow. Also, make sure that
all towing equipment is properly attached to your vehicle. If
you are not certain that you are using the right equipment in
the proper manner, see your Ford or Lincoln-Mercury dealer.

Hitches
*
[DR36650(R )01/95]
For towing trailers up to 2,000 lb (907 kg), use a weight
carrying hitch and ball which uniformly distributes the trailer
tongue loads through the underbody structure. Use a
frame-mounted weight distributing hitch for trailers over
2,000 lb (907 kg).

[DR36800(ALL)12/91]
Do not install a single or multi-clamp type bumper hitch, or a
hitch which attaches to the axle. Underbody mounted hitches
are acceptable if installed properly. Follow towing instructions
of a reputable rental agency.

Whenever a trailer hitch and hardware are removed, make sure
all mounting holes in the underbody are properly sealed to
prevent noxious gases or water from entering.

Step bumper (If equipped)
[DR37400(R )03/93]
The optional step bumper has a built-in hitch and only requires
a ball with a 3/4 inch shank diameter. The step bumper has a
Class I capability (2,000 lb/907 kg trailer weight and
200 lb/91 kg tongue weight).
