OT:(a bit) Hitch anti-rattle??
 
I'm considering THIS:Roadmaster Quiet Hitch for 2" Trailer Hitches Roadmaster Hitch Accessories RM-061

Anyone else use any type of anti-rattle device?

I plan on including one with each mobility lift I sell & install as well-those things really wiggle!

I carry my "CHIN KNOCKER" in the tool box until needed.

This looks like it could be used upside-down to take the load off of it.

*Don't know what a "Chin Knocker" is.....

*I looked at the possibility of using the Roadmaster upside down but I don't think there is enough room with our trucks (mine has the factory hitch)...lots of folks report doing this on the Etrailer site....

If you take up the space with a used plastic bag it my still move but you won't hear it rattle anymore. Always worked in a pinch.

Well Supercab: I have whacked my chins, on my hitch several times and it hurts like the dickens.:'(

Stinky's shin-knocker killed a whole car. :D

Stinky now wears the license plate frame from the deceased car... I call hit his pound of flesh for the affront.

Yes really. When you're desperate you'll try anything. And I think "chin knocker" might be "shin knocker"? We've all done that!

Maybe he's walking on his hands?

I'm picturing a really big lift, huge tires....

4inchlovin 12-05-2012 01:39 PM

regardless if it is a chin knocker i think you have it upside down hahahaa

JT250 12-05-2012 03:29 PM

why upside down/ why not just put the bottom part behind the bottom lip insteat of top part behind top lip?

Supercab 12-05-2012 03:34 PM

-just don't think there is enough room for the threads under the bumper-between the bumper and hitch-this WOULD really be the better way to attach it though.....
