    I purchased my swingout. :D

    But I did sweat a little while they delivered it from the warehouse where I took a week to prep and paint it.

    And I did MODIFY it with a hot dog stand umbrella holder and Velcro fire extinguisher holder.

    This all counts as DIY right? :thumbsup:

    researching how to add a swingout
    Have one needs welding

    1. how are folks getting everything lined up?
    i *hope* my steel HC rear is on perfectly straight but maybe it’s not. Maybe it doesn’t matter

    2. The little spare tire holder it came out
    That bolts onto the swingout
    It looks flimsy. Might have to change it to square or rectangle tube. No problem.
    Question is the angle

    the angle is straight vertical. Do folks prefer to change that and have some angle, as much as you can get away with tilted towards shell or ST window, so the tire tilts and isn’t vertical?
