The drawbar gets stuck in the hitch receiver after one winter here because of road salt induced corrosion, so I'd say your case is normal.

Just spray it down with PB Blaster then get after it with a hammer. It'll come out.

I needed a 12 pound sledge hammer and about twenty minutes of beating to extricate one that had been in the receiver for one winter.

Tried a logging chain, an oak tree, and a running start first.

The drawbar laughed at me when the rear wheels jumped off the ground.

I did take the truck in a get a inspection, codes checked etc and they are pretty positive everything is all good...no fiddling. Now to do some maintenance and upgrade the suspension
