Re: SVX hitch Group buy

Up to 3,500 lbs GTW
Up to 525 lbs TW

It can handle more but the svx would be the limiting factor.

It uses 3/8" thk plate with a 2x2x1/4" bar.

I used the prototype to move from ontario to alberta.

Re: SVX hitch Group buy

That sounds perfect. Since the frame rotted out on my truck, I need a tow vehicle for my boat. This would be the most economical solution. What were you thinking of for a price?

I'm interested for sure. We'll see how it plays out. I'm not in a hurry. Is pick up a possibility or are you out west still?

That could be a problem. With shipping costs the hitch will be worth more than the car I'm putting it on. It's a '92 with close to 400,000 km.
Like I said, play it by ear.
