Trailer Hitch - 7 photos in total
Sorry for taking so long to get to this - it has been pouring down every day for over a week, finally got the car dried off to get some nice pictures...
all bolts are 12mm. Last edited by SURTEESS; 07-23-2011 at 03:15 AM.

Re: Trailer Hitch - 7 photos in total
Where your hitch hooks to the spare tire well , mine goes back 4 more inches and attaches the the plate seen in the picture . I was afraid the metal of the tire well would not be strong enough. Noticed cracks on yours.

Re: Trailer Hitch - 7 photos in total
Mine is similar except the plate under the spare wheel well is triangular and there's a matching plate inside the wheel well to give it strength. Mine also has a chromed removable tounge.

Re: Trailer Hitch - 7 photos in total
I read "trailer hitch" and flinched at the thought of an ugly hook hanging out of the back of the SVX until I saw this.
It's very well done and almost looks like it should have been there all along. Great job!
