WTB - Reese style hitch - 68 SWB K-10 Lebanon,PA

[msgross]

Just what it says. looking for a reese style hitch, 32" between holes for a SWB K-10. A little modifications is ok and it doesn't have to be totally hidden. In or around Central PA, MD, NJ would be best unless the price is right then I would do shipping. Thanks...

I've got a couple that have been pulled off these old trucks.

We might be making another Paragon trip in November, you wanna wait for that to meet in route?

Hmm, for us ignorant folks, what does a Reese style hitch look like? I have a hitch I took off a 72 LWB K20. I'm very close distance wise, that's mainly why I'm asking.

I call it a Reese but that's just one company that makes hitches like this. It only needs to be 32" wide (hole to hole) give or take 1/2" and I will make it work. I'm not going to pay $209 plus $57 shipping to ECE due to budget concerns. Thanks for any help that you can give.

FYI - I'm pretty sure that a later '73-'87 hitch is the correct width as well. You're chassis should be about 34" wide - and I just picked up a hitch for a '73-'87 and it measures 34" wide. I'm sure the holes will have to be drilled though

I still have this if you are interested...

Yeah, I don't blame you, that is expensive. Mine doesn't look like that, but I'll take a pic over the weekend and post it on Monday at the latest.

thanks...I just need to go searching with a tape and find one...

RG,
Looks like shipping from KY is $25 (sounds low).

I could check with USPS to make sure if you are interested.

not for $75 (if that shipping was accurate).

[raggedjim]

No problem, Rg

There should be a ton of them around - I picked up a Class IV for $20 @ a swap meet - lot better than $200 from ECE or even $150 From www.etrailer.com
