Highboy trailer hitch?

Does anyone still make a frame mounted receiver hitch to fit the narrow highboy frame?

Try Carquest auto parts, i got one from them that bolted right in on my 76 F250 4x4 (highboy). And since it is still avaible here in ohio i dont see why other stores may not have it

If you can't find a hitch in your area.....Tractor supply sells a receiver hitch that bolts to the Pull Plate on a pickup bumper. You could take it and very easily fabricate a support member to bolt to the frame rails on your truck and then Weld the center part from TSC and you'd have the same thing. The center section is about 35 or so. fd

Drawtite makes a nice HD hitch that fits..... its a D.T. 41001
some may say its overkill but I like it, alot better than the multi fit stuff.

it also fits old chevs that had the 34" frame.
