    Hahahahaha nice one Aaron, touché. Actually took some measurements this evening with loaded and unloaded, I'll post those up later.

    But anyways, his original idea was for it to be bolted to the bumper itself with an inch or two sticking below (so much for high clearance :rolleyes: ). Anyways, I had Adam put it on a drawbar like I've seen before. The only problem with that is the hitch is extremely difficult to use due to the pin location. So I got tired of taking it out and not having a place for it when towing.

    Don't know how I missed all of this tweety bird hate, but damn that sucks. And the first one I found when doing the S/C install was actually yellow like tweety bird. I'm beginning to see a trend with you Chris. Gonna start calling you the bird hater.

    I got sent back in December for the rattling/popping open latch. Now it's super crooked when in the open position. Although looking back at pictures from when it was new, it was doing the same thing.

    Yep, sure has. Sucks working with someone that won't reply back to emails or post in his own products thread.

    That might help me but make the swing out worse.
