Towbar for Broadway FB

I've decided against carrying my 2 ebikes (combined weight 55kg) on the existing rack of my 7,2mtr long  base Boxer based Broadway FB. With the large rear overhang I have concerns over the stresses on the rear panel. So am consequently considering fitting a towbar as a safer option to make use of my existing Atera Strada ebike carrier.

I have tried contacting Witter but have not had much joy as their site only appears to fit to the shorter Boxer based vans. Can anyone offer any advice on the fitting of a towbar to the longer Broadway or indeed if the fitting of a towbar is feasable to this model. I clearly do not want to be in the position of cutting panels and or rerouting pipes etc.

Any advice or guidance would be much appreciated

Here a screenshot of Watling towbars showing the Broadway FB, chassis extensions required...

I really have no experience of the fastening of racks perhaps a call to the factory would help.

I've just realised Ive posted this on the van conversion forum in error.

Can I move it or can an administrator move it for me?

Thanks

I wouldn't be putting the weight of two bikes at 55Kg and , say, 15Kg for a rack or towbar on the extreme rear of any motorhome with an overhang such as the Broadway has.
IMHO.

I understand your point and have considered other options such a a towbar requiring chassis extensions. The original factory fitted rack is a Fiamma and plated at 60kg. so still confused and doing more research.

Thank you
