Which Adjustable Drop Hitch?

[TMyers]

TMyers how do you like your Weigh Safe after you've had for a while?

It has worked out great for my needs. BTW, we share the same name.

Thanks. I plan to use the hitch on my 2017 F-250 and I was concerned about the ware on the aluminum and any rattling noise you get while driving.

I kind of thought our first name was the same. I am from Ohio. Thanks again!!

I have a Gen Y hitch rated for 32,000 gross trailer weight, they are very well made and made in the USA they are pricey but it comes down to how much you want pay for safey.

Looks like you already got hitch but might as well put out what I have which is a
B & W Tow and Stow as others have previously mentioned been quite happy with it

Do you have a link the one you are referring to? I've been trying to fine one that will work with a 2.5" receiver and have not found one that:
A: will fit and
B: that I like.

I did the Amazon search and couldn't figure out which one you were referring to.

I have one like this : Amazon product ASIN B073PXQ6X5 for my 2" receivers that I really like....but nobody makes one for a 2.5

However, I just came across this, and I think it will work great, I just wish it was cheaper. Amazon product ASIN B073PXQ6X5

kthaxton,

I bought this one for my 2-1/2" receiver hitch.
Amazon product ASIN B073X6SYMP
I found that I need to pull it out about 1/4" from fully on in order to tighten the bolt where it needs to go. It will work as delivered, but I ran a tap through the threads and a die along the bolt to get the bolt to turn easily by hand.

If anything happened to the one I have, I'd buy another one just like it.

Does anyone have experience with the GenY hitch? The price is a little salty but having a built in pintle hitch is nice. The higher end models have a dampening bushings built in. Regarding the tightness of the fit. I too am very annoyed by the sound of a rattling hitch. Do an Amazon search for a "Anti Rattle Hitch Tighener". It may sound crazy but this thing is basically a window clamp for the receiver. The ones I picked up were stainless steel and work great! I was quite surprised by the rating of the GenY.

Cheers,

I have a GenY. I’ve had it for five years. This hitch is well built and I would buy again if I needed one.
