I'm looking to either buy a hitch or have one made for my Tracker.
I was wondering if I could just have a welder cut off the stock round tube that is right below the bumper and weld in a long square tubing and weld a short square receiver perpendicular to it?
If I were to try and remove the stock round tube are the nuts that hold it on welded inside the frame?
I once towed 1,000 liters of water on a trailer with mine. The car performed great, and was only defeated when I tried reversing the load up an incline...
Quinton, by the way, you don't have to cut that round tube off - it should be attached with 2 or 3 bolts on either side. I bought a direct fit trailer hitch, when I got mine - just bolted on.
