Clarified answer... The plating you see is bolted to the frame of the truck and welded. The frame doesnt have an issue being welded if you use the correct welder. As with all correct welds it has been grooved and sanded prior to being welded. The ball is a drop in ball with a slide lever. All...

NDT, It is bolted well under the plate and bolts welded. Big Tom, Thank you. Yeah I always carry plenty of tools and parts. Always surprised that after helping others nobody even gives me the chance to decline there offer for money. 😂😂😂 Have pulled 7 people out of the snow this year and...

Working on a drop in version for any of you guys that want one.

By the way, I took mostly interstate.

Planning a trip soon and picking up a M1073 in Ohio. If anyone needs anything carried from Detroit Michigan down to or enroute to West Texas I am willing to carry it for FREE (no charge and no Commercial purpose) if you guys need. Would love to be able to help out anyone in need. Just FYI...
