Has anyone modified a later model storage rack to a Thor/DM T@B? If so please show me.

  I searched “tongue platform”.  Not specific to Thor TaBs.

  Don't see why a truck box like ours from Tractor Supply wouldn't work.

  I remember hearing that the Alco frames can’t carry as much weight- especially on the tongue - so you might want to investigate further before making any modifications.

  Thanks, I will make sure whatever I get will comply with the weight specifications. I may get one of those jack wheels with a scale built in.
