Should you elect to mount it in the back, we supply the HD Square receiver
hitch that can handle.
Were also working on a front mount with the Square receiver.
Rick Flanagan will need to assist us on load calculations.
I'm begining to see that the front mount has some limitation on weight
capacity.
Like any kit, we learned from Blue Ox, the towing people that you never
want to weld onto a frame, just bolt it.
