Dealer-installed bumper, two inch quick-change ball, 16 foot trailer with 2x6000 lb. axles. Loader weighs around 8800 lbs.
Dealer installed bumper, 2 5/16 quick change ball, trailer rated at 22,000 lb, 2x12,000lb. axles. Trailer is electric over hydraulic tilt with a Harbor Freight 12,000 lb. winch. Trailer weighs about 6k, box weighs about 5 k.
I use a quick change ball system I bought at NAPA. The ball shaft bolts through the bumper, you just change the ***** out to fit. 1 7/8, 2, 2 5/16.

The 70's.
Not getting much of a work out at all......The last 2 pics are a fellow FTE member (earthquake1968) giving the ol 6cyl 4 spd a work out.
"Alice" is now a 8 lugger.....rear D60 with overloads and front 8 lug spindles to match. 390 goes in it real soon, so I hear anyway.

I must confess that the 70's era trucks are my favorite hands down but I am very happy with my "Blue Cruise" and now that is her name.
Take care
