I'm going to let that POS weld in a local shop - maybe.
Have to get a quote first.

Anybody knows the sizes?
I know its 3.25 x 2 inch, but how long?
Where are the pinholes?
Is it closed at the rear end?
What steel / alloy ?

Has somebody a photo?

Anything else to be considered?

TIA

Have you checked IPD? You might be about as well off to order one of their stock hitches. Or there are generally local shops which stock hitches that work just fine. You might be about as well off financially, and if you care about looks . . .

When I recently measured the "weird volvo thingy drawbar receiver ballmount" female part (that's the one with the "insy," right?) with my cheap vernier caliper I took it to be a nominal 5 cm x 8 cm. That 5 cm is a very shy 2" -- no go with 2" stock, sorry!
