Default Trailer hitch with rear seat options

What trailer hitches are out there that work with rear flip seat. I was going to do frame mount but not seeing one that works with seat and foot rest. I'm not sure about mounting it to the footrest base and it hold a trailer without support from main frame

I can build one but not sure how to mount

Here's a not very good picture of mine, but I don't subscribe to the theory that these cars can carry much tongue weight, or pull much trailer weight without bending the frame!!

Crash, if your asking me, I'm not versed in club cars, so I can't help you. Sorry!!

A leaf spring car may be better than a coil over car for hitch mount!!

Sorry guys, I'm a dummy (like Crash) when it comes to computer slang!! But don't know what OP means!!

If you mean "where did I get the receiver" I got it at Harbor Freight!! Probably about 12 bucks!! It's the one and a quarter inch receiver, for a light duty 1 1/4" insert and a 1 7/8" ball!!

I Welded all the mounting points onto the receiver, to mount it to the car, but I made the rear seat, so that wasn't a problem!!

My trailer hasn't weighted more than 500# fully loaded, and maybe 50# of tongue weight so...

My trailer is also a HF special!! That's been modified!!

Hope I answered your questions!!

Default Re: Trailer hitch with rear seat options

thanks mike and crash. Im not using the hitch as a lot of tongue weight but I am using it to push my empty car hauler into the back yard as there is a slight hill. I made a square dolly to hold the tongue that has a receiver that i used to put in hitch of our SxS to push it in but now i am going to use the cart since i sold the SxS

most weight on step will be 2 adults but I have bent rear steps a few times slightly backing into things and once being pulled out of mud by hitch mounted under step on my Ezgo bent step

Mike looking at yours i am thinking 18" hitch extension mounted to either custom bumper or under frame and tie in to the step on both sides for more support
