broke out the welder for this mod
well i was not going to pay 175 bucks for a 14 inch drop hitch that i needed for my camper , so i bought some 2x2- 1/4 steal and went to work .
reason i needed so much drop is i have a weight distrabution system so the ***** are a touch higher than a normal shank .
3x pass on the welds and shes good as gold . 30 bucks in materials and tows the camper even , no more *** to the ground when towing it . when i brought the camper home all i had was a reese 2" drop that didnt work out so well as every bump the campers rear smacked the ground . the down side of having a lifted truck , but now all is well .hear is a pic next to the nittro's 17 inch rim .
