ROO 233s rear frame extension for storage deck, box, bike rack

So, in an attempt to carry more gear...
and my ultralight airplane - POWERED PARAGLIDER...

I extended the frame with 1"x 3" steel tube.
all welded in place.

It's just about done.

Now, with all this....let me just say...
I hate it when when people put these Pup truck boxes on the backs of Travel Trailers...
They just look stuck on!!

I walked into Home Depot the other day...
This HUSKY unit (usually priced at $350.00) was sitting there at $80.00!?
Not a return, simply a mark down!
So, I could not refuse the deal.

I am still trying to sort out a "SWING AWAY" gantry so the box can swing out for access - when the bed is down.

OH and here it is with bike rack attached

Here are 2 overall views,

AND yes...I took off the bumper, waste pipe storage...
then REATTACHED it UNDER this assembly...

It's about 3" lower...and doesn't serve much purpose except to store the waste pipe like before.

someone PM'd me and asked why...? This is my Powered Paraglider that will actually set on that deck when the box is moved.
