1987 Southwind towing capacity
Our 87 Southwind has a mfgr listed towing capacity of 3500 pounds. It has a Chevy chassis with a 454, TH400, and 4.88 axle ratio. I know that is has a class 3 hitch. Here is my confusion, the hitch...

Our first A was a 84 27' Southwind. Had a heavy hitch built, bridged frame from rear axle to bumper, towed 30'enclosed car hauler 100k miles, did a yeomans job, never had trouble but once, lost a water pump in a winter run, that was a hard job to change it in the motel parking lot but other wise it was a trouble free coach. Trailer was over 10k#s loaded. My advise is always carry a COMPLETE spare HEI distributor and know how to change it.
