B & W turnover ball rusting (side plates)

[elamb]

I have had my turnover ball for less than a year and the plates that attach to the outside of the frame are already rusting and paint is coming off. I was just wondering if anyone elses had done this. I guess I'll sand them down and paint them.



Thanks,

Eric

I haven't got the B&W on my Dodge yet, but I had one on my Furd for 4 years. The paint will eventially disappear. I guess the paint is cheap but I can definitely say the product is top quality. I overloaded mine many times on the old Furd and never had any problems. Well except for the time I hauled mortar mix in the bed and a bag busted. That night it rained and the mortar hardened around the hitch. I like to never got the ball out. You have the wheel liners so nobody can see it anyway.

I added the turnover ball hitch to my 03 CTD a week ago. I don't think it was to bad to install. I would love to see B&W torque all of the fasteners with all of the "stuff" under the bed

Thanks for the replys. I guess I'll just paint it.
