oh i see.. i figured it wouldn't be cheap. lol however, is it bad to keep the "trailer ball" the way it is mounted on the OEM bumper now? its been on there like that for as long as I can remember and the bumper had a pre-drilled hole in there for it.

mother nature is responsible for that truck mod. lol

hopefully I get lucky at the JY one of these weeks and come across one. are these hitches pretty universal?
