    Putnam XDR Class V hitch

    I just got out from under my truck. (2004 QC CTD 3500 DRW) I also need to get rid of the stock hitch and install a class 5 hitch. Wouldn't be best just to cut the entire tube out, with the receiver? Removing the hitch would involve lifting up the bed, so I would simply cutt the tube right at the...

From what I have read so far, they are getting loose as well as the dowel pin, and have potential to inflict eaven heavier damage than the pin. To make mathers worst, some of them are hiden under...
