do you have a weight distributing hitch bar system?
i have a dual axle car trailer and have towed vanagons facing bacwards with
their engines before the rear axle of the trailer, this is best, but i have
also towed them facing front too with no problems (i have a weight dist
hitchbar). the key thing is to get most of the weight centered over the front of the
two rear axles of the trailer.   tow it backwards if you can, though..
