Why not just spend that little bit extra and buy the Dobbin mount?

same setup has been working on the back of the mog rover for years, I paid $60 for the nylon block that I'm using on my pos.

I think it would handle been driven daily, i saw my old lux a few months ago and it was still the original hitch and rubber.
However i don't think you would have any chance of it been engineered for on road use.
