Does not fit: Couplers

NOT the same 4 house pattern as my trunnion coupler incorrectly stated in the description. Now it's too late for me to return it. It was necessary to indicate the dimensions of the distance between the holes in the photos and in the product description. Shame on the seller.

Pros
  • Sleek Design
Cons
  • Modern

Heavy Duty: Receiver

I would give 4.5 stars. It seems quite heavy, but the bar rattles in it a little more than I'd like. I'm sure it doesn't affect the performance of the product, but it can be a bit of a nuisance on the road. Still, I would buy it again because it looks like a commercial product.

Pros
  • Absolutely Amazing!
Cons
  • Almost everything is fine

VERY WELL PUT TOGETHER AND THE TOLERANCES WERE EXACT!

With all the options there were, it turned out to be double (top and bottom) with folds and well reinforced in the photos - if you look at it from reality, it's done better , than the photos usually show - very good fit and finish, very happy with the invisible online purchase!

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Vulgarity

Non-standard application of the pin will require drilling new holes.

This is not a standard needle template. Now I have a Curt Pintle on my truck that also claims to be stock and fits with no issues. The screw spacing on this item is longer and I cannot drill new holes in my particular application. Will be returned. The product description needs to be revised.

Pros
  • Very good value for money
Cons
  • There are other interesting options.

Fits perfectly on the back of the platform

This worked great for use in place of a pin hitch on a recently purchased platform. The pin hitch is great for heavy loads, but we needed to be able to tow different trailers with different ball sizes and tongue heights and not have a pin hitch trailer. This hitch says it's rated for a trailer weight of 20,000 pounds and a drawbar weight of 2,000 pounds, which is more than we could tow with it. It bolted directly to the holes on the back of the Knapheide platform where the rotary coupler wasโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Quality construction
Cons
  • Hard to tell

good solid unit when installed

This serves its purpose well on the back of our bus which has been converted to tow our Jeep. I had a styloid rear hitch and they all have 6 holes and are always in the same place. This replaces the pintail but only the top holes are 3-12" apart and I had to drill my own for the middle ones. .

Pros
  • Bolt-On Pickup Tube: This corrosion-resistant bolt-on pick-up tube is rated for 20,000lb MGTW and offers towing flexibility when switching from ball hitch to trunnion hook; Buyer Wanted 8520 Mounting Kit (sold separately)
Cons
  • Sun Sun

It will work for what I'm using it for.

This will work for what I use it for, but it's not just bolt and go. The mounting holes are too close to the weld for the fat head to sit flat, so I had to sand the weld a bit on the bolt holes. Also, the welds look a little intimidating. but don't use that in a tow app, so it's not really a security feature I'm overly concerned about. I would buy it for towing. no chance! For the application I'm using. All day.

Pros
  • Rugged and versatile, this 2" barrel is 6" long and welded to a 1/2" steel mounting plate and bolts easily to any hitch plate with a standard 5/8" trunnion hook hole pattern
Cons
  • Upgrades
