mr.helsby asked doug about towing problems with his swift freestyle van.I had similar problems with a swift lifestyle van,a marquis special.I had,in the end to fit a traditional anti-snake bar to get it to tow sensibly.A problem i found, and i think mr helsby has the same chassis on his van,is that the van axle is set forward of the mid point along the chassis.this in my view,creates an in -built instability.
It took me a long time to get it right.balance.To the extent that could identify which vehicle i was overtaking would cause the most sway.
Unquestionably,it was car transporters,which i would say is caused by the air turbulence between the cars on the vehicle.
Incidentally,i sold the life style and bought a bailey pegasus rimini.towing now is chalk and cheese compared to the swift.lifestyle.
Anyone want to buy a snakemaster.?
my towcar is a volvo,xc70.Fantastic for towing and 4x4.
Regards,MIKE
