So my hitch came in the other day and yesterday I started mocking up the way I want to mount the hitch. I started trying to use the mounting plates that came with the hitch but they are just not going to work. I am going to get some 1/2” plate to use since I am going to have to make smaller support brackets. I will then get these brackets welded on the ends of the tube and then they will bolt up to the frame with grade 8 bolts. BTW the old hitch had grade 5 bolts in it. This is a 16k rated hitch with a 2" reciever.
