Yet another use for the front hitch! :)
Well I had to tow a UHaul trailer and get my DRZ where I was going at the same time and ended up running out of room in the trailer and also had nowhere to tie the bike down inside the trailer anyways so i used the hitch rack I made for the rear up front. I had to drill a vertical hole in the hitch mount thingy but other than that it worked out well. I did end up getting where I was going after dark and my headlights were blocked ALOT but it was all freeway and I made it to where I was going  .
Its fine during the day and I got a LOT of looks hahaha.

Weld Evo wheels. Be ready to spend some money!! The truck looks killer. For some reason I can't stop thinking about the Beverly Hillbilly's  |

I assume you mean lift and I'll answer you as soon as you tell me what you do to afford that stable of vehicles!

Re: Yet another use for the front hitch! :)
Looks good.
What brand of carrier is that?
What is the rated capacity?
I need to figure out how to transport my HP2 on the SUT.
It weighs about 450 lbs.

Re: Yet another use for the front hitch! :)
Your rig looks great. That is a perfect proportion of rim tire and lift.

Re: Yet another use for the front hitch! :)
Thanks everyone for the compliments. I am very happy with the way the lift/wheel/tire combo worked out. I knew what I wanted for it before I even bought my H2.
Htothe2 - I don't have more pictures handy but can take some if you want them.
Vettster - I built it myself. I tried to use one that a buddy of mine bought one time in the back and when I put my bike on it, it wobbled sooooo much I didn't even bother trying. So, I built one myself that would be more stable and it worked out. I don't know what the rated capacity would be but it holds my DRZ just peachy!
