All cars have frames, the unit body design simply means the frame is part of the body. The draw-tite hitches sold for the 240 are called frame mount hitches because they mount to the same frame members as the rear bumper. Thats what I want. Theres a member of this forum who had her hitch practically fall off on a road trip, I don't want that.

I also want a reciever type hitch so that when I'm not towing I don't have a piece of flat bar hanging out the back to bark my shins. The original dealer option style hitch was all that was available in the 60's, theres much better stuff available 40 years later.

What I really want to know is has anyone found an off the shelf reciever unit that requires little or no modifications to mount to my wagon.
