TOWING

One of the many advantages of choosing a Lance truck camper as your RV is the ability to tow all your toys.

When towing items behind larger Lance camper models, extending the hitch from the truck rearward to the camper bumper is necessary. (See chart below for towing capacities of all models.) The method Lance recommends is a truck-mounted Class V receiver hitch and hitch box extension. A draw bar with hitch ball is inserted into the hitch box extension, the same way it would be inserted into the receiver hitch itself.

The other important benefit is that the Reese Tow Beast Class V system doesn’t require you to attach the receiver hitch or hitch box extension to the camper when camper is removed. The hitch box extension can be in place when loading or unloading your camper. For very heavy loads, the hitch box extension in combination with a weight-equalizing hitch can be used. The chart below gives capacities for the Reese Tow Beast Class V hitch box extensions. Always observe your truck tow ratings and the advice of your Factory Authorized Lance Dealer. Their service teams have the knowledge, experience and skill to outfit your rig correctly.
