good idea or bad

Very good. Especially when you get one off ebay for £20. Has totally stopped all the rattles I had in the rear and it feels more predictable.

LOL yes the only problem is you kind of lose the practicality of the wagon e.g. getting mattresses, cupboards and huge boxes in the back. But if you fit it with quick release bolts as someone else on here did, that solves the problem. Actually, all the rear strut braces I've seen are three piece designs anyway, so you can leave the two mounting rings permanently in place, and just take the bar out if you need the room.

LOL Indeed.
Well you don't carry these items all day long !! & like you say you can just remove prior to loading up. 2 Minute Job. I did think about putting some Quick releases on but they want silly money for them, So i stuck with the Two nuts that can be undone once the caps are removed & then lift out.

Yes well that's the thing. If I'm ever carrying big stuff in the back, it's never a surprise to me. I will just take the brace off at home before I set out.
