Loox pretty strong. I like the latch you got, where'd u score that from?

You coulda angled off the corners of the bar though, loox a little "agricultural" :finger:

i could have angle of the corners but its better than having the ends cut level with the side of the car and i dont have any steel bending tools.
the latch i got from my steel supplier but my local trailer supplies also have them and they both had tons of different types
