        I have one like that that has worked fine for me for the 7yrs that I
have owned the Van~

I have the RetainerBars mounted Horizontal & as near the end of the
TowLoop as the bolt will

allow so that the R'B' catches both sides & some of the end of the Loop'

                                                                        ORR ~ DeanB
