Anyone have a hook up or anything like that? I'd like to get one, just trying to find the cheapest place to do so.

Another vote for weigh safe
Please don’t put the ball on backwards...... just take the damn thing off

Just goes to show you never, ever listen to BigPig I promise this is one of the few things I haven’t broken... yet. The weakness of the B&W is the design of the drop part, it doesn’t take much to bend that to where the “hitch ball” won’t line back up. The Weigh Safe is THICK and the way the rails are designed, I’m going to have to try harder to break it and I’m afraid that’s going to hurt.

Went ahead and ordered the b&w before anyone replied. They were the same cost on all websites, so figured no deals to be had.

Cause I don’t really believe it. That other one is thicker but it’s also made of coke cans

No Buzz
That’s an old pick.
Hitch is still around
When I bought it...... they were the only manufacturer making a 2.5” adjustable ball mount... yes the only one

I use B&W’s and haul some heavy stuff, probably much heavier than most of the guys on here and I’ve never bent one. I regularly overload it on short hauls and they work flawlessly. I had 20k plus on one last week so if someone’s bent or failed I’d say it was a fluke. Anything’s possible though

Too bad you already ordered. I have three of them laying here that aren’t being used that I would make a deal on.

This Weigh Safe so far has caught 2 high curbs, 1 concrete wall (not me driving), and stopped 3 cars one of which rear ended my trailer. I don’t know how many times the ball on the bottom has drug across the concrete from steep entrances, but this hitch has held strong.

Had enough tongue weight on it to need 65 lbs of airbag to get it to ride right, and it hasn’t moved a bit. That’s why I think wades a dirty Lyin copper!

Pulling isn’t as hard on them as a sudden impact into a solid object. Just my experience with them
