I use the first one, second one is harder to get the pin in/out of. I also clip my brake-away cable on the pin clip and if I use the second hole I don't have enough room to clip it on it.

My draw tite hitch on my 04 has 2. A small one that the pin dosent fit in and the larger one that accepts the pin. I found out that the smaller hole is for an "anti rattle" hitch pin sold by draw tite. I saw a pic of it on their website, maybe other manufacturers are doing that also.

??????? My original hitch had 2 holes. It cracked and failed. The dealership replaced it under warranty. The new hitch only has 1 hole. I had never seen a hitch with 2 holes until I bought my 04. All the others have only had 1. My original one cracked in 2 places.

I have a 2004 f150 xlt. My factory hitch rusted out and when I went to hook my camper up to the hitch it went to the ground. I took my truck to get a new hitch and the guys said they could not put a aftermarket hitch on because the hitch is attached to the bumper. I called the dealer and they want 700 to put another one on. I find aftermarket hitches online but I cant get it put on ????????
