You don't say much about your van, but they tow pretty well. Keep it below 1000lbs and you'll hardly notice it. Over 2000lbs (and I've done it), the brakes just aren't up to it. If you have an 86+ 2wd non camper, then you could probably tow a 400lb trailer and be as fast as a syncro westy off the line. Dave, '91 westy.
