I thought I saw a hint of a full-size frame extension. Interested in details...Thanks,Chip (new guy)

When I had my scooter rack installed, I had Eckharts Hitch & Welding also install a beefier hitch. They used the the welded frame extensions they installed for the rack to also carry the load of the new hitch. The hitch no longer attaches to the bumper. According to Eckharts, the hitch will accommodate 1,000 pounds vertical weight and 10,000 lbs tow. Of course, that's more than the rest of the rig can manage, so it is fantasy capacity. But, one clearly can get a stronger hitch setup fabricated. -- Jon ('06TK "Albatross")
Re: 2002 LD in washington state Reply #13 – September 26, 2016, 11:18:21 am Jon, thanks for your post. Would it be possible to post a picture or two of the underside? I'm a few thousand miles away from your hitch resource...The Ford upfitters manuals have chapter and verse on how to extend the frame, either mid-vehicle or at the tail end. I'll be providing that as the primary reference for the welder. I do understand that the capacity "increase" does not translate to actual towing capacity of the vehicle itself. Thanks in advance for any additional info.Chip 2000 23.5 FL
Re: 2002 LD in washington state Reply #14 – September 26, 2016, 11:38:51 am Chip, when you are done, please start a topic on this subject- it seems you are going at it very carefully. I for one would like to see the results as a kind of "state of the art" posting. Thanks!

Thanks in advance for any additional info.Chip, I'll look for some photos I took years ago, probably stored on an old laptop. Failing that, I'll take some new ones next time I visit the rig (in storage) for inclusion in a "new topic." -- JonChip 2000 23.5 FL
