I saw that hitch on e-trailer. there is just too much goin on with that thing. I think I will just add a few gussets to my next hitch for some insurance. Still don't plan on overLoading it. Also gonna ditch the extra long hitch that adds more leverage on the reciver.

A long hitch can add a lot of leverage, lol.

Could you get me a pic of how your hitch is set up on that flat bed? On my 450 there isn't any receiver just a 2 inch ball put through c channel and I am wanting to build something to accept a drop/raise hitch.

Depending how your flatbed is setup you might be able to use an normal hitch like I have on my 550. I've got a Class 5 Curt that takes 2.5" ball mounts. Stout hitch for just over $300. Much better then the 2" drawtite that was on the truck when I got it.

Yep, pulled the 550 leafs out of the rear last year, dropped the back down to level with the front and threw stock leafs and bags under the rear. Rides much better empty.

The place where that gas station is? Kind a look like it from the picture

Gotcha

He means Tamarack the plaza in WVA it's a big travel plaza on the turnpike in W.Va.



Looks to me it's the one farther down south of there,

That picture was actually at a fuel station in northern Ohio on the I80 turnpike.
