Go for it Grant. Just be aware that any fabrication you make for the rear of the FamWag is subject to insurance.
If it fails or is involved in a prang then the bumper/carrier is subject to insurance scrutiny.
Not engineered? No specifactions on the carrier or swing away? No loading specs on the towbar?

Deep shite.....

Not a personel thing at all, believe me. Just a awareness post - thats all.

If you fabricate a "thing" for your vehicle, if it's not engineered then it's a liability for insurance. If you can't certify and plate the carrier/front bar/steps/rock rails/winch plate - and so on then you are on thin ice with insurance.

I draw an attention factor to all items that do not fall under current regs for fitment to vehicles.
It can cost you......
