The South Australian Government Fact Sheet on "A" Frame towing issued by the Department for Transport. On their first page states. " It is recommended that a copy of this Fact Sheet, together with any reports, approvals or other documents, is carried in the vehicle at all times." I suggest this is in case you are spoken too by a member of the constabularly who may not fully know all of the legislation, you can then justifiably show you fully comply with the required Government Legislation. It is however, not allowable to drive a vehicle with the "A" Frame attached to the vehicle when not being towed. It is classed as a hazard. Cheers Tony ![]()

Hi All
I wish to report that I towed my 1942 MB Willys Jeep using my new "A" Frame system on a 1000 Klm round trip to take part in the annual Pichi Richi Troop Train Re-enactment and I was very pleased with the trip. Everything went as well as I expected, I even had a Police Highway Patrol follow me for about 3 Klm before he turned off, obviously I passed the test. Next week I will again tow the Jeep, this time to the Jamestown Ais Show where the jeep will be part of a re-enactment battle between the Allies and the Afrika Korps. Spitfires will be used straff and drop pyrotechnics, should be a good weekend. The free Wheeling hubs and removal of the rear axles make it very easy to toww. I have no hesitation in recommending the "A" Frame system as an alternative to trailer towing, but again that is a personal choice. I certainly noticed I saved a lot of fuel. Cheers Tony ![]()
