rear hitch mount

i must have been the luckiest person that day  because i drilled all four bolt holes through both sides of the frame and all four bolts lined up on the first try  enough that  i didnt have to wobble out the holes    unfortunately for me  i was rear ended this past wed coming home from work and my bicycle carrier was crushed and my truck totaled      before i could try it out on the camper this past weekend i had to cancel my camping trip   and probably my plans to go to biketoberfest in daytona next month   maybe i will have a new tow vehicle in time not to have to cancel my camping in ocala in november  before the snow birds return and end all my camping until they leave in april

Hitch

Love the hitch work, but not your news on the accident. Hope you are OK, as that’s what’s important.

Aluminum fatigue

Very Nice result and look.  Consider keeping a very close eye on the high stress points on the receiver and rack as Aluminum has a finite fatigue life when load cycling and can develop cracks that propagate quickly  and the bikes on the rear of my 13 wiggle and bounce constantly even when added straps are used to steady them to the bumper.
