Metal fabricators help please
Is there anyone that can either point me in the right direction or fabricate a back box hanger like this one in the pic
It's to fit around my genome back box I can measure it up and give correct sizes.. Back box is this
Thanks in advance

I could mate although Id rather not tinker with a rare back box thinking if I could hang it off a hanger and extend the centre pipe so I wouldt devalue the back box

If you extend it and set it up I could tack it in place for you so you can get a pro weld on it

Cheers for the offer mate I'm in no hurry hust yet need to see if I can get this bracket made up to fit... Once I've got that sorted I can have a piece welded to the centre section

Rather not touch the back box though mate... The hanger bracket would be the solution I think

It would probably be less trouble and a better alround fit to get the Genome that was made specifically for the forester
