I build rear tie-downs myself and it is 1" square tubing you can buy at Home Depot.
Than I used 3" square washer used for house anchoring to weld it on the end and drill 2 holes.
About $10 worth of material.
Now that's a good idea!
Could you expand a little more on how you bolted the flat, end face plate with the holes to the 1" square tubing?
As I said, it needs to be welded, although I could think about bolt-on application.
Original plates have a hole with cut slot. I could never figure out what is the purpose of it.
Bottom line, I put about 10,000 miles with home-made rear tie-downs with no problem.
Front base is what is complicated, but you need just the insert, so even if you don't DIY, any weld shop should fabricate that in minutes.
Thank you.
My guess is the slot they cut is a fuse.
If you pull super hard on the plate like the TC would, the plate looks like it's made to rip before your frame/anchors do.
