Re: Blazer trailer hitches

If you look at the picture thread you'll see you can flip the hitch over and tuck it up.

Re: Blazer trailer hitches

So after 30 days of waiting and calling and not getting anyone to tell me anything... Uhaul finally fesses up that they had misplaced my order and it hadn't even been started being built!

They apologized and gave me some $ back and said they'd overnight it as soon as it is finished.

Re: Blazer trailer hitches

I received the hitch last week. They are probably not going to want to make another one. After refunding me a few bucks for loosing my order and then overnighting it, they made about $20. I plan to install it this weekend. I'll take pix when it's mounted.

Re: Blazer trailer hitches

Got it in this weekend. It was pretty straight forward. Uses existing bumper bracket mount in the back. Hole locations on the front were easily accessed for drilling - maybe more so now that I have the 4" lift . Here's pix! I'm happy with it.

Re: Blazer trailer hitches

Hitch Masters in Van Nuys, CA has one that welds on and puts the receiver right under the plate.

Re: Blazer trailer hitches

Looks good, but they forgot to weld a tab to hold the wiring warness for trailer lights. Take a look at the picture of mine on page 1 and you will see what I'm talking about. My wiring harness is located above and to the left of the receiver.

Is there a source and part number for a front receiver hitch for out trucks or is it custom?
