Response to Redrocket204. I see your point if the bumper is lighter weight and the hitch is centered. It could twist the bumper enough to crack the tube. In my case I have the thicker walled 4 1/4 tube. My generator mounts right next to one of the safety struts and the spare tire mounts about 8 inches from the other, so no twisting at all. Had my brother follow me and no movement at all. also have rubber eq-flex and shocks on TT. But I do agree with you on twisting if to much bounce is experienced.
Yup, exactly. There is a guy on here who goes by the screen name Fisherguy, I think it was Fisherguy, where he has some pictures of where his bumper just peeled away where the mount was positioned.
And agreed that not all RV bumpers are the same but my mtb bikes do not go on racks on the back of my TT period... they are a bit pricey so they go out of sight anyway. Just not worth taking a chance of getting them stolen or wrecked.
