    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    My M934 is longer than a M923 but I think the way I mounted it would work. You need about 18” of frame rail to bolt up to. I had to move the glad hands but that was the easy part. The hardest pard was drilling 6 - 5/8” holes in the frame. The steel is quite hard.

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    Yes. I bought a class 5 hitch for a Chevy 3500. The frame rail width is exactly the same as my M934. I thought I had some pictures but can’t find them. I’ll go take some and show you what I did. I went with Class 5 because I haul a 32’ covered trailer with my M37 and M151 inside. The trailer...

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    I chose to use a class 5 receiver for my M934. For the difference in price, I have a hitch I don't have to worry about. I use a class 5 drop hitch to achieve the correct height. I set the height to match the ball height on my pickup truck. I posted a couple pictures on this post on 12/27/2016...

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    Yes. The I used the bolts to hold the two pieces of angle together while I was dry fitting it. Once I was sure I had the correct drop, I welded them together. I just left the bolts in for extra "grip"... Drilling the frame was the hardest part of this installation. I used the top half of the...

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    class 5 hitch I used a Curt hitch made for a 2007 (NOT 2007.5) Chevy. I dropped the hitch mount 3" and use an insert that drops another 4". This put the ball at the correct height that matched my pick up hitch. I also had to move the glad hand some, but that was no big deal. Sorry I don't...

    M923 receiver/hitch assembly

    I put a class five receiver on my 934. If you order one made for a chevy 3500 the width is right on. I fabed some drop brackets and bolted it up to the frame with 6 - 5/8" grade 8 bolts. I bought a drop insert to acheive the correct height for my trailers... Next I will add an electric break...
