A hitch helps small shitty cars hit your hitch and save your bumper. Fucks shins, use your eyes. Hitch has saved from rear end collisions twice for me.

@truckerbug4507 4 года назад

It would be easier to just pull 1 pin and take the hitch out and put it in the truck. Prevents corrosion on the hitch also..

@noahsnarleynvideos5826 3 года назад

It’s probably not the best idea to put it in the cab with you. I’m sure any firefighter or emt has a story of responding to a rollover where a jack or toolbox became a projectile smashed that persons face in. I’d keep it in a truck box if you had one.

@adamtweakland4088 Год назад

If you hook a trailer almost every day like I do....that would be a pain in the ass, I did that for 3 months and eventually it became blah. Now I leave it in my receiver.

@Bigjcomeon Год назад

For a expensive one like this maybe. But I like leaving my hitches on. A little added protection from a rear-end collision 🤣

@DomesticDad20 Год назад

I have this hitch and you’re right, it’s a pain in the butt to put it in stow mode. Also, wish they made a single ball configuration, my 2” ball always drags the concrete with my low trailer.

@Durataur 3 года назад

I have this hitch. I never use the stow option tho, if I want it to not hurt my shin I just take it off. Main benefit is the adjustability and how easy it is to switch ball sizes.

@5thGenNativeTexan 3 года назад

Thoughts on spare / replacement pins and clips? While I know the majority of the hitch can't be stolen (assuming you also purchase a locking receiver pin), but if someone were to pull the clips, and maybe the pins too, on hitch height and / or ball swivel, you could be in a world of hurt. At a minimum, I purchased a locking receiver pin, and a bag of 3 replacement clips. But also thinking about 3 spare pins as well. Thoughts ???

They truly are the best hitches made. I've owned one for many years. The only advice I could add is if you live in the north where snow and salty roads are the norm from November- March, be sure to either remove it or spray with silicone frequently

@TackleJunky81 3 года назад

@SultanofSpey 3 года назад

I coated the inside of the truck receiver and the hitch sleeve itself with a high grade marine bearing grease the day I bought my truck and hitch. Every so often I clean it all out and reapply. My truck is 6 years old and I live in upstate NY...the road salt capital of the world. I still have no rust on the useable portion of either the receiver or the sleeve. Sure, it's dirty and cruddy as hell but it's all trapped in the grease. No rust. It's a bit of maintenance a few times a year but worth it. Hitch slides in and out nicely every time.

I’ve watched 30 videos on the tow and stow and not in a single one does anyone grab the ball and try and rattle all those pins around. They are all so proud that they can flip it around backwards. I knew that the first time I looked at it. More interested in the slop factor. I know how to get rid of the slop in the shank, but what about the ball and adjustment pins?

@TackleJunky81 3 года назад

I now have a Ram Laramie 1500 with a BW 5" drop. All depends on the height of the trailer. To be honest I bought a new boat and when I measured for the drop I needed a 4" so I went with the 5", but after I hooked up to the trailer I had to keep raising the ball to where I didn't need any drop at all...so the weight of the trailer plays a roll as well. I'd measure and then go from there. There is a video on the BW site on how to measure.

If you pull multiple trailers then this is nice but if you have just one or two trailers then just get separate single hitches and keep them in your cab or covered box. Think about this, to stow it, you have to pull two pins, flip it, then install two pins. Why not just take out the whole hitch (one pin) and put the hitch in you cab or box.

So yes it's a sweet hitch and I'm not a cop and all but in New Jersey I do believe it's illegal to drive with your trailer hitch due to to the fact that if some asshole rear ends you your pretty much gonna f up their car. I think it's driven from insurance. With this hitch the ball is on the back side it wouldn't do as much damage. Like I said I'm not a cop a judge or the law but I did hear that as an old wives tale . I'm sure I'll hear crap from this but all states are different. I can sneeze in this state and someone wants to sue me for global warming or something dumb like that

@JohnAnderson-sm8jl 11 месяцев назад

Ridiculous...I like my hitch sticking out a bit. 1) It's not that hard to remember it is there, unless you are a tard 2) it protects the bumper from impacts. I've been rear ended once at a stop light...it was modest collision, and the hitch took all the impact. I didn't have a scratch on my truck, but the other car couldn't be driven away, 3). It protects your truck from backing collisions, 4) It provides a step to reach into the front part of the bed. A hitch sticking out is a non-problem. Besides, if you are really so dumb you can't see or remember your hitch, take off the ball part and store it in your lock box or in the cab. Note that the Curt Class V Commercial has the highest rated tongue weight available, 2700#, while the best BW is only 2100#. This is because the Curt has 1/2" gusset reinforcement behind hitch. BW doesn't have this, and can't, because of the dumb stow idea.
