I'll get in touch with you next week. Looks like the clearance left to right on the hitch is fine and the just shy of 28" diameter tire should clear the panhard bar and the front of the hitch with about an inch to spare. I even found the original hanger bolt, broken off in the drivers frame rail, unencumbered by the hitch assembly. So, should be a go. Will send ya a PM too. Thanks.
