need some hitch ideas
Looking to put a hitch on my truck so I can haul my jeep around. I'm not crazy about the whole hidden hitch thing, so I guess I'm looking for y'alls suggestions and pics of hitches.
Thanks!

Re: need some hitch ideas
class 3 or 4 frame mounted hitch is the lightest I would go if you are hauling that thing around a lot

Re: need some hitch ideas
i've gotten reciever hitches a few times from jcwhitney they've been pretty heavy duty the reciever below the bumper. sometimes i needed to drill a few holes ,but the hitches worked well and i pulled lots of heavy trailers for very long distances without problems

Re: need some hitch ideas
I bought my hitch on my C20 from Uhaul. My local Uhaul had several of them and they were looking to get rid of them since they were for old trucks. I think it cost just over 100 bucks installed. This was about 5 years ago. You might want to call Uhaul and see if they have any to fit your truck.
