bumper hitch
 

A friend of mine gave me a hitch that fits the 60s back truck bumpers. It looks kind of like a drop hitch but hooks to the bumper with these clamps and has a ball in the middle. Anyone have anything like this or ever saw one?

LOOKS LIKE A U HAUL UNIVERSAL HITCH, SEEMS TO BE ADJUSTABLE FOR DIFFERENT BUMPERS, HEIGHTS AND WIDTH.....NOT REALLY UNIQUE TO OUR TRUCKS BUT COOL ANY WAY.......KIETH:uhmk:

Re: bumper hitch
 

Yep, Uhaul. it's what my parents used when we would need to tow a trailer and Dad was without a truck at times. You rented, with deposit, or purchased them at Uhaul when you rented a trailer.

Interesting...only issue is my truck don't got a rear bumper. lol Poor me! ;)

I remember those. Does it weigh 50 - 60 pounds?

I guess the advent of plastic bumpers made these unusable.

Re: bumper hitch
 

Yeah about 50 lbs. Is it worth anything?

If nothing else it's cool wall art for the garage. That's an older one the ones from the seventies had chains and hooks. It was orange by the way

As scrap metal about $4.00.

As wall art, pric...., Ok maybe $6.00.

I would save it for the wall art value.
