Dwight:

Keep in mind that the force associated with towing will be carried through the two plastic spacer blocks and two quarter inch bolts (if memory serves me correct, may be less) where the front aluminum extension meets the chassis at the top of the foot well.

For a very low speed tow off the race track should not be a problem, otherwise you may want to reinforce the connnection point noted.

I am not an engineer but I suspect the small bolts and plastic block were designed to give some break away protection in the event of a severe frontal impact.

I like the idea, however. Good work!

Chuck
