Roadster Rear Hitch

[augkuo]

Tesla doesn't sell the hitch anymore for the Roadster so I went with Torklift's - on a 2.5 it's a little higher than the 2.0 as you can see that
the license plate had to be cut a little to get it to fit.

Anyone try this company? Sounds like a DIY kit.

I have looked closely at their plans and they seem better than the Tesla one I installed. So I would not hesitate to use them.

There's two threads that are ongoing about the hitches, possibly they can be merged into one.

But augkuo ( Augie ) just had the Torklift hitch installed on his Roadster. You can see the the thread here:

Bumping this thread up the list because... want! Anyone with a hitch have any newer photos they can share of cool stuff they've attached/towed?

Self-installed Torklift on mine. Wife and I helped the neighborhood decorate for Christmas last year. Bike rack was ideal for transporting life size plywood snowmen and gingerbread men. I recently acquired a Stromer electric bicycle that I'm looking to take around town once I get a rack sturdy enough (bike is 65lbs w/ battery). I used the pictured rack with my regular push bike with no issues. Hitch, rack, and bike held together perfectly during a "spirited" test run around a wet warehouse parking lot.
