Trailer Hitch

Hey guys I got rear ended on the way to school today. The truck took it pretty well for the most part. I had my trailer hitch in, and it took the whole impact, bumper didn't even get a scratch. Problem is the square tubing on my receiver actually got twisted. I was at a dead stop and the lady hit me doing about 30-35. Her car is all sorts of mangled, pretty much the entire front of her car got pushed back about 6 inches.

So now I am in the search for a new reciever, at her expense of course. So can anyone recommend a web site to buy one. 1994 F250 Ext. Cab Long Bed 5.8 4WD.

Thanks guys!

Summit racing.com ,partstrain.com, Broncograveyard.com If you get one make sure its class 3 to 5. 5 can hold more weight. plus if shes paying for it why the hell not.

I think I got mine from www.reese-hitch.com but it's been so long that I don't remember exactly. I wouldn't go any larger than a class 4 hitch since the class 5 goes to a 2.5" square receiver tube, plus the truck probably isn't rated to pull enough for the class 5 to be worthwhile.
