what the make of this hitch is on the '91?? I've tried to ID but so far haven't come up with anything positive... I'm not worried about the square stock add-on underneath, but the post, and what fits it. I thought it might be a Bushtec, but can't be positive.

Yes, that is a Bushtec post. Not sure about the hitch. Bushtec does make their own hitches and I suspect that is what it may be.

 

Thanks Don. Since I'll probably never end up with a Bush, do you happen to know if there's an adapter available that will make it a standard 1 7/8" ball?? Love the hitch hardware. Stout...

No, I've never seen such an adapter. You might check at the Bushtec site but I've never seen one. I've seen the opposite in that they make a pin that has a threaded post to be used on a regular hitch. It looks like somebody added a receiver below that one to take a regular stinger of some sort with a ball mount.

Yeah, the receiver on the bottom is definately an add-on, and when they added it they used an odd-ball size square stock. 2"x2"OD .25 wall. It's too small to take a standard 2" hitch, and too big to handle the smaller 1.25" Class I's. I'll either locate a piece of 1.50" square, and make my own, or cut the thing off and weld on the same size the rest of the world uses for a class I.
