    I dunno guys, it looks like a good part to me. It was designed and tested as a tow hitch after all! To each his own.

    Whats probably more important is the condition of your rear crossmember, and how you attach the hitch to the crossmember.

      On the other hand if you are into errant wheeled objects careering into oncoming traffic I think the implication is to spend less . . .

          When using a 4 pin trailer wiring adapter do you need to take the wire for the trailer's brake lights all the way to the brake light switch on a Series IIA that was originally positive ground?
