Default I got a hitch for my cart with a rear seat

Hello All,
I installed a lift kit/tires and when I got done I wanted to get a hitch.
But was worried because of the rear seat that was installed. So I ordered and installed it, it came with an extention, the only problem I seen was being the extention was long, it make it flex under cart. So there was these metal things (you can see it picture) I used plastic wrapped metal wire and secured it. So it wouldn't flex.
What do you all think?

I think I see a hitch bolted to some plastic. I would rethink the entire application. What I see is unsafe at best. Sorry, but you asked.

I completely agree, but this was the only hitch that I could find. Yes its bolted to the rear plastic floor board but this was the only location that fit these 2 bolt hole patterns under the cart.
Thanks

Do you have the same step or mount area as I do? Where did you get it from ?

i welded mine up from a used car hitch. it bolted to the frame in 4 places. i can jack up the cart on it without it flexing. also I can put over 300 punds tounge weight on it with no problems.

yours looks like an accident waiting to happen!! plastic isn't meant to take those kinds of loads. it might work for some REALLY LIGHT stuff but i really wouldn't trust it myself.

where are you located?

You need a frame mount like this.
I installed one on my 92 it's very solid.
