Hanging 200 pounds behind a Vanagon needs to be done with care. As the
load moves further back, the actual load on the rear axle increases and
the load on the front axle are lifted. I build a hitch that will hold
the load. Please see the attachment for some information and pictures.
The price is $250 delivered.

What recommendations for a square receiver hitch?  Prefer frame mounted.
1985 Westfalia
185  pound moped on carrier
Have not purchased carrier yet; so referrals for it too desired.

Thank you for any help
