Thanks for asking, the drawbar is about an two and a half inches wide, and has several large holes bored into it so you can vary the length. using the large carriage bolt/spring clip that is in front of the plastic can...the gas can was made about 1985, it is thick and strong in the bottom section. I drilled two holes in the bottom of the plastic, used a pair of big carriage bolts backed with fender washers inside the can and under the drawbar plus plastic pipe cut the vertical thickness of the drawbar to get the bolts a snug fit, I used wing nuts for easy removal if needed. Will post pics of the larger, summer toolbox when I install it next spring...it's a cut down Craftsman multi level organizer toolbox.
