Manual Trans. 2WD Enthusiast
I figured I would put a review up in the review section for anyone on the fence.
I installed this one on a a bare chassis, eventual flatbed rig for the sheer strength of american engineered, built, and assembled excellence. my broke ass could have saved 100 bucks and went with a import curt unit, but I passed on that. due to the use, the turnover portion wont ever be used, but I will aquire a second one for the other truck at some point.
once I figured out the instructions it was a breeze!
(had the crossmembers upside down)
pros:
beefy
american made
easy to assemble (once you figure out the vauge instructions)
precise (that ball isnt going anywhere)
cons:
paint: chips easy
washers: soft, and will cave in before the required 90 lb/ft will likely re-do with hardened washers, and maybe fine thread hardware, as IMO, coarse hardware is debateable in this application.
pics if anyone wants them.
