Feasible?

I never had anyone tell me it was a problem.

I did this

Two lengths of threaded rod into the front of the rear footwell, secure with split washers and wingnuts. Keeps it clean. Not sure if yours will be too long

Here's some pics I took at the 50th Anniversary in Cooma:

Oh, I agree.

What I did later was to fit the hilift to the bar once we got to the playing fields. On the way there, it was carried in the back.

Jack fitted to the trailer as a last resort - will review the situation in the coming weeks/months.

Thanks, you blokes for your assistance.;)
