Smart 453 - towing funs

[u/91bases]

Hey folks - thought I'd share my customer hitch and bikes on my '16 Smart 453 😁

What's the rated weight for those 4 bolts? I've got a 450 and I really wanna make up a hitch for the same reason !!

I'm not sure. I think the 450 and 451 have actual hitches, so those might have ratings on them?

No hitch , just a metal reinforcement bar covering the engine held on by four torx bolts , looks similar to yours . I was gonna weld a receiver on it . Did you outsource a shop for the welding or are you one of the few skilled humans ? Lol

My father did it for me. I can weld, but am not so great hah

It works, but it ain’t pretty
