Have you thought about moving the water/genny rack to a front hitch? It will probably improve handling, while eliminating the need to remove the rack to use the tail-gate ramp. You'd be at the limit of most off-the-shelf receivers, but modifying it to become a 3-point receiver will elevate those concerns and make it more stable.
Considered yes, but a couple issues negated it for me. 1) The weight, I would think you would also need to beef up the front springs to deal with it. But 2) Blocking of head lights, and blocking of cooling. And moreover, I don't think I want potentially gallons and gallons of gas in front of me. I'm actually thinking about just adding a small trailer behind me that I can unhitch and roll away. It's making more sense the more I think about it. I was just trying to avoid some negligible maintenance on it. The big hitch carrier I have was such a smooth option for this getup!
