Would I attach a plow? Not on your life.

I don't do anything to further stabilize the carrier. Mine is a 1.25" so direct attach to the 1.25 receiver is fairly stiff. Your utlizing a 1.25" to 2.00" adapter will introduce some sloppiness, just don't know how much. Also, the adapter pushes your load another 6 or so inches further away from axle, thereby effectively increasing the load on your suspension.

That's why I want to go straight to 2", to get rid of the adaptor and extra length.

Thanks for the pictures
