Bike rack mod

Bob be careful what you do to Mod. your camper, as it may void your warranty. In particular the tool box on the bumper. Congrats. on the new unit, Happy camping, Sam

The 10th Anniversary Outbacks come with a bicycle receiver hitch on the bumper. I called Keystone specifically to ask how much weight that hitch(and the bumper) would support. They told me 200 lbs. The weight of the aluminum box and contents will be well under that. Plus, the mounting will be close to the rear wall, so there will be very little "leverage" hanging off the back of the bumper. Most of the weight will be supported by the bumper itself and will be mounted with 4" square U-bolts to the bumper.
