Torklift stuff is good, but never was cheap.
The rear tie-downs are easy to manufacture or modify and any welder can do it in about 1 hr.
4 ft extension is no joke, but than when you are facing $1000 in attachment, that makes good point to consider truck upgrade.
For my 2017 model, I spend $35 for 3" tubing that makes 4 ft extension.
Per rough calculation 3" tubing is stronger than TL supertrust.
Saves about 100lb from hitch weight as well.
