Trailer Hitch wanted to fit a K5 - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**GMCNUT** · 05-19-2020, 04:56 PM

Hey guys - the Hickey hitch design in the picture was designed to work on pickups and Blazers which is why I am posting this here - thinking one of you probably has one or something similar to sell me maybe?

I have two trailers and a boat and can't pull a dam one of them with the K5 because it doesn't have a trailer hitch. Would love one of you to sell me a real Hickey like pictured for it, and willing to pay handsomely for one, but barring that, if anyone has a hitch you know will work without modification on my 72 K5, sling it at me and tell me what you want for it. Need to be able to pull my boat in the coming weeks

Check into a hitch from a 73 up c10 c20
I Picked up a class 5 hitch for my 72 that was from a 73 87 C series truck
I am finally getting her back on the road and will install it soon

I have one from a square body K5 , I will post pics when I can. It is heavy duty 3/4 ×2 flat bar and cradles the rear gas tank. It is chrome plated too
