There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Now available!

Depending on which way you install it will determine how easy it will come off. If you leave the hitch ball in place, it will take about 5-7 minutes to remove it using a 9/16" ratchet and socket.
If you use the hitch ball hole for installation, you will need the tools to remove the larger 3/4" bolt. I am in the process (within a few days) of offering a kit for the hitch ball installation that will include a tool to easily remove the larger bolt. The adaptor plate that is used will have 2 small steel runners on each side that will trap the head of the bolt and keep it from turning so no wrench is required. The bottom will have 2 nuts welded onto each end of a 3" long sleeve. What this will do is make it much easier to get to it remove it. I will also have a hole drilled just above the bottom nut so that a 10" long "breaker bar", which is included in the kit, can be used to install and remove the rack. I may even attach to the bar a 9/16" deep well socket. That way you can carry one very small tool and check your bolts and nuts, tighten as needed, or remove for any reason.
