Looking to see if anybody makes some kind of reinforcement bar for rear of baja under engine hatch I've noticed when my hatch is up and the weight of the hatch in on the hinges I noticed a lot of flex in fiberglass any ideas??? Thanks

Whoa......that does not sound good or right, but I still would look at through bolting a piece of aluminum angle. May be tougher to get to but if that area is flexing just under the weight of the hatch I would think that cracks are going to start showing up, so I think your on the right track looking for something to reinforce it.

My hatch also included the rear seat back which made the hatch that much heavier, although I liked the ability to sit on the seat to work on the engine. Randy

My hammer is identicle to your h2x in the rear I might look and see if there was a spot for the second ram because the backseat is part of my sun pad as well and yes lol extremely heavy haha thanks
