buggy rack for trailer hitch
I need to make a buggy rack to fit a 1.25" tow hitch rack.
It is for a vmax which will soon have bigfoots. I would also like to fit my flexifoil on there too. I would like to hear all your input and see some
images of what you guys have made.

Here is how I transport my buggy. I often have the Vmax from my son on there also, his without back wheels so that the alex fits between my wheels and
his front wheel lays against mine. I'll try to find a picture of both buggy's
The rack is just a standard bike rack for two bikes. The only change I made was to add to hold down points for the back axle
I have been all over the place with the buggy's on back and have not had a problem yet.
( i hope it works with the pictures)

Kullas, I love that setup. Simple, strong, and very effective. I printed out the pics to make a double buggy setup next month using the same
concept. Currently I have a modified Yakima rack that I took the bike holder bars and flipped them upside down, and slid down to the hitch point. It
works out pretty well but I often wonder if it will break over a heavy bump driving down the freeway. That would just suck.

Thanks all. Its all made out of 2" thick wall Sq. tubing it could be converted to a double rack by adding some cross pieces where the axle sits. This
could also be scaled down to fit the 1.25 tow hitch just make sure its thick wall tubing. Dont want anything taking a 60 mph plunge
