An idea Don. Since you have the winch back there, just weld a little pulley above the mount. You would still have to guide it onto the mount lugs, but you don't have to lift it up there.Or incorporate the winch into an arm like a hoist you could swing the tire or other things into the back of SD.
So the Red Dog got "loaded" last night and had to sleep it off in the garage, or did it shine a IR laser at a Dutch Jet and get "shelled"? Sorry, you gave me the "ammunition" and I had to "take the shot".......bah!
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.

Literally and figuratively. I think I hope for your sake and the red dogs, it passes ok, without a stoppage...

What if she drops a load in the lawn, and I go mowing over it some time later!
I was thinking more of the "Battle of New Orleans" when they fired the croc off!!!!Can't wait to see the end of this bumper and how the tranny works when pulling that big ol thing.
the lower plunger latch blocks the tail light and reverse light....this ok with the DOT....the real DOT
Really great work as always. Is there any risk that a branch running down the side of SD could open that top latch? Or does it have some sort of safety to prevent that? (I'm reading on my phone so things aren't always as obvious as on a larger screen). ::)

Who is going to verify the count and will they be returned to stock?
Don- (and I am going to apologize in advance....nothing worse than some clown sitting on a 'puter questioning your work while you're doing it and posting it all for us to see and learn from! ::)). Could you turn the whole upper latch piece 180 degrees....put the catch on the bar up the side of SD and have the "handle" on the rack/carrier? I realize the foot you attached the handle is larger than the foot for the catch assembly ( so more fabrication....more pictures....LOL) but it might prevent it being opened by a branch etc. I totally get that the bottom latch would keep it closed so it may not be needed but figured as I am sitting here throwing grenades I might as well go all in. ;D
