I put a 3 rack swagman on the back of a CF325CK and had no problems. The rack has been on 4 trailers in 2 years and works great.

All of you welcome to the forum. Now the bike rack I think you better check the welds on the bumper . they may not be the greatest. Bikes on the back of a camper take an awful pounding. I carry mine up on the kingpin and they never move.

Please see our post from April 2010entitled: Rear Bumper Support for Bike Rack.

http://www.crossroadsrv.com/forum/fo...s.asp?TID=1716



We built a support last spring that beefed up the rear bumper without welding to the frame.

It is good enough for bikes but I wouldn't use it to tow a trailer.

We have a few thousand miles with the two bikes hanging out the back and havehad no problems with the bumper or bike rack.

In stock form, I wouldn't have attached a bouncing and dynamic load to the bumper. With a piece of steel stock and a few welds you should be good to go!
