California Residents: Prop 65 Warning
Great hitch, solid construction. Definitely not your ordinary hitch, takes a little more strength to get in installed (heavy). We are using it on a 2020 Chevy Travers to pull a 170SS, can’t even tell its there (other than the rearview mirror). The install was a little tricky because the truck we have has a plastic bumper that hides the hitch, but after some muscling it fit right in there. (no damage to the cosmetic bumper) You can tell the difference while towing right away, no more clanging or push/pulling effect. Definitely recommend to anyone pulling anything, very pleasant ride with this hitch installed. Easy to inflate and deflate the bag as well, I just bring a bicycle tire pump. Takes a second to do, easy peasy.
Summary: Worth it, just buy it and save your rig or trailer.
