One thing you can do to make a hitch hauler more stable is to add straps going from the ends of the rack to the stake pockets above. This is a really simple solution for open bed pickups, and keeps the whole rack from shifting back and forth. Those hard oscillations is what can cause the main hitch to break.
In California, bringing a trailer means 55 mph speed limit. I was able to put the pedal to the metal with this setup last weekend. This bike was only 200 lbs, so little worry of breaking anything.No trailer this time?
