370 z hitch designs + prototype

Alyeska

I’ll include one prototype and plans to construct a 2” reciever hitch that does not require removing rear bumper cover, requires drilling only one hole in alum bumper support, and utilizes the unitized body to support 50% of the load and the alum bumper support to hold the other 50%. This design does not put twisting torque on the bumper support since it only relies on it for downward pressure. I have been using this design on my 2018 z roadster for one year now and have had no issues with stress on the vehicle anywhere, I have pulled a 1000 lb trailer regularly. I am selling the designs and one prototype for $5000, I don’t feel I should give this ingenious design away for free and I don’t want to spend the money on a patent attorney. This design came out of necessity, we regularly pull our Kayaks now where before I had designed a way of hauling them on the roof, my designs are proven and I have been fabricating off road parts and commercial equipment and parts for years as a hobby. Please contact me if you have any interest, I do not plan on ever releasing this design unless it is sold. Thank you.

Why don't you contact some hitch manufacturers & see if they're interested. You'd probably have better luck with them than you would here (I'd presume).

Angry badger thank you! Took your advice and sold designs today, look for my hitch in the next year from a large hitch manufacturer. Thank you
