That would be cutting you a deal biotch! I bill out at least $75/hr

I thought you meant you needed to build a trailer for the jeep to pull the 7 with a rack for tires. Guess not....:smilielol5:

oh - and what ever trailer you make should be able to go off road when GRASS!! appears.

I was thinking about it, but that would cost a ton of coin. I keep looking for car trailers, and if I can find one for about a grand I'd pick it up and put a tire rack on it, but they always seem to go for more than that. I really don't like abusing my truck like that. She's still got a stock clutch and stock brakes. The stock clutch has about 163k on it so I don't want to really press my luck. The whole trailer and car would weigh in excess of 5k lbs, where a little auto-x trailer would weigh....maybe 500lbs?

wow. 25 hours. sounds like one of my suppliers trying to pull a fast one. :smilielol5:

hades 05-28-2011 10:38 AM

IMO a hitch wouldn't be bad if you could hide it for daily use. A custom bumper cover or plug? or make easy to remove?

Fab work takes time, more than you think. There's estimnated time, then there's the time it should take, then there's the time it did take, and then there's what I call Brian time. I can see that taking a full 2 days, the bumper probably came on and off a "bazzillion" times :rofl:

It'll be very easy to remove. Going to mount to where the stock rear tow hooks do so it'll come off with an impack in a bout 14 seconds

If that actually took that guy 25hrs to make, he has no hand skills.

Well RX-8 owners aren't the most handy unless they were previous RX-7 owners :suspect:

I think it's cool that the hitch comes through the ole rotor logo. It takes time, I still think that 25 hrs is a little excessive but shit always takes 2x as long as you think it will....

i wonder if his design time is included? it might have taken a while figure out HOW to do it
