Superior Receiver for Towing

This receiver is exactly what I needed! Through trial and error, i found that it fit perfectly on my pickup truck and is incredibly durable. It has allowed me to tow my large boat and other heavy cargo with ease .The powder-coated finish looks great and has held up well against the elements. The only downside is that the installation process was a bit more challenging than I expected. however, once it was in place it has been an absolute game-changer for my towing needs..

Pros
  • Heavy-duty construction for durability and strength
Cons
  • Requires a larger vehicle with a 4 inch hitch receiver, limiting compatibility with some vehicles

WILL NOT FIT 1-1/4 " receptacle

I was going to install this in my new Reese 1-1/4" receiver but it didn't fit. So I looked at the end and noticed that the paint was bulging around the edge. Assuming paint bubbles were the problem, I sanded the edge of the comb on the shank end and tried again. It failed again. I thought the new Reese hitch receiver, which i just installed two days ago might be small so i tried to fit it into my other car's 1-1/4" receiver and it didn't fit there either. so i measured it. how As you can see in

Pros
  • EASY INSTALLATION To install this Class 1 hitch ball on your vehicle, simply insert the stem into your vehicle's 1-1/4" hitch receptacle. Rounded shank makes installation easier Shaft with coupling pin (sold separately)
Cons
  • Anything I can add
