Headed that way in a few minutes. Should be there by 9:30. Not exactly sure where the campsite is though...

You forgot Subaru as an option. :) I may be down with the M1009 on Saturday.

They are still working on it there in Rushville, but ya the detour around it is pretty easy.

There is construction in Rushville, but you can get around it via some city streets. 52 is closed right by where the old Chrysler dealership was. You'll probably have to cut down to 44. I'm going to try and make it down to Haspin sometime Friday evening.

Hate to revive an old thread but just wanted to comment that I installed this hitch on my m1008 over the weekend. In order to get the hitch to fit, I had to cut the bottom lip off the support brackets. However, that was all it took to get this hitch to fit. As is stated in the first post...

Hello everyone. I'm going to try and make it down to Haspin for my first rally! I'll either be down Friday evening or Saturday morning; just depends on work and time. I'll be driving the M1008, and I may bring the M101A1 as well. I'm looking forward to it.

Got mine home on a UHaul trailer. Barely fit between the wheel wells but it fit. The front tire straps were also close as far as getting them closed was concerned. After we got it loaded, it was a really easy tow home.

firefox, did you end up getting the curt or the pro series? I am looking to put a hitch on my m1008 and I wondered how your install went. Thanks.

I could use the bar that pins into the shackle mount on the front. I've got Paypal. Thanks let me know.

Hey all! I just joined SS a month ago or so, and I just purchased my first M1009 an hour ago! I'd been looking for a CUCV for about 2 years. It wasn't that I couldn't find one; it was finding one with a price I liked that was the hard part. I finally found one on the GSA auction website located...
