Re: Creating the trailer hitch

I'm thinking you are talking about the trailer tongue. The part that is on the trailer. If it is just for your testing we made ours out of a chunk of 3/4 conduit.

Re: Creating the trailer hitch

so the hitch is just the spacer "smacking bar" and the u shape piece of metal with holes on it?

Re: Creating the trailer hitch

Yes, and the "u shaped piece of metal with holes on it" is made by cutting out a 7" long section of the kit frame c channel with one of the pre-drilled 1/4" holes in the center. If you cut 7" off the stock end of one of the channels the hole will be in the proper location (unless your kit frame is different than ours, you never know so double check).

Re: Creating the trailer hitch

Even if it isn't in the proper spot (like ours) it is easy enough to measure and drill out the proper holes. Though it is slightly annoying.
