Is it legal to weld extra supporting bars onto your chassis?
lightweight-love:
Hi all, I'm making up a detachable lowered tow bar to my lightweight so it hangs nice and low to tow but can quickly unbolt for mud-fun, and my plan involves welding a square tube between the chassis rails about a foot back from the rear crossmember to attach support bars from the towball mount.
Just thought id check legality before welding to my chassis!
Cheers

yes it is fine to weld as it is only a support bar for the Towbar, so it shouldnt have any problem for the MOT

Nowt wrong with welding extras to your chassis, but search google for TUV approved towbars :roll: :doh:
landmannnn:
You are not allowed to weld anything to a chassis in Germany, it hasn't got here yet. One day though......
