How to prepare your tow vehicle for your new Zone RV - tow heights

It's essential to verify that your tow height is correct for towing your new ZONE RV.

Most customers will have upgrade work carried out on their tow vehicles in preparation for towing their caravans, such as:
  • The installation of airbags to assist the springs when the load is applied.
  • A full GVM upgrade, replacing the springs, shocks and hitch.
A GVM upgrade can increase your towing capacity, but it's vital to ensure it's suitable for the caravan you plan to tow.
Considering all the above, your tongue height should be measured from the ground to the top of the flat section of the tongue. This should be between 500mm & 530mm, based on the car being loaded with the expected travel payload. Excluding your caravan.
Please note if your caravan is fitted with a D045 coupling, you will need a suitable tow tongue with a 1 1/4" hole.
