    Do you mean a ball hitch for a tow point? scratch All you need is the receiver pin, the strap can attach to it.

    Allan, How tall is that? Mine is mounted to the bed-mounted rack and the tip is 13' above the ground. That should work well.

    So I hear that the plan is that we are meeting up in Farmington. The phone number I have for you is xxx.xxx.9988, is that right? Mine ends in 8386. I'll have the CB on 16 too.

    That's and old # I dont care if some one on here sees mine. 3one3 seven 1 o 9 .

    Farmington at the park and ride basically the entrance to get into riteaid at the lights.should be there about 615 if everything goes as planned.

    I haven't measured to see how tall it is yet. I know I can go under over passes. But hit in a drive threw. I would guess 13.5'ish
