Cool Boxlink Trailer Hitch Mount

I got tired of my trailer hitch and ball bouncing around in the truck bed when not in use, so I designed this bracket that slips into a Boxlink bracket. It's 3D-printed in carbon fiber-reinforced PET plastic. Going to road-test it for a little while, then make some to sell. Is there any interest from others?

Cool. My Boxlink plates have the horizontal holes on the handle portion not the vertical holes like your bracket. Just FYI, there are two variations of that bracket.

One.....


and the utter...LOL

Whelp, guess you'd need a few yards of duct tape to make it work then. :-D If it holds up through my road tests, I may see if I can get a sample of your style locally and adapt the model to fit it. Stay tuned...

Supposed to have a hitch with a ball upside down so that when you get a slight rear end bump from some tailgater, it takes out their front steering linkage and makes the car undrivable.
