Doomed to only carry a down duvet on this rack?
1986 Chevy G10 SWB Van: tongue weight 400 lb
Yakima Backswing (swings to side): max carry is 250 lb, and weighs 36 lb
Cargo rack: 48 lb. It folds up and I just got the shank shortened so it doesn’t stick out so far but clears propane when folded. Still sticks out plenty far, I know!
I was watching a Curt trailers vid where they gave math regarding max carry on a configuration like this.
From their math, it seems like I can only put 50 more lb on this rack. I’m hoping that if I ratchet to the bumper on either side, that’ll help.
Looking for experienced opinions. Taking this out on a road trip in a few days. Thanks!
