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

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
