Homewall: Build it on swing set?

One of my neighbors put in a swing set for his kids a few years back using Eastern Jungle Gym set. Fairly straightforward DIY. I sat on it and it's burly. My kids want something similar, but they also want a climbing wall. So I'm thinking, can i use the kit to build a climbing wall + swing set? Or maybe even two kits, one for swings and one for climbing wall. I can put even steep angle walls on it since the structure is 12' wide and 7'8 tall.

Anyone done anything like that?

Added: I'm talking about a real spray wall style wall, not baby climbing walls.

It seems somewhat redundant for a climbing wall support. 2 of the four legs will be doing  essentially nothing.

My vote is for combining the climbing wall and the swing set! The swings might be kinda painful, and loud... thump... thump... thump.  But hey, why not!
