Default Photoshop request

Can someone photoshop a pulling hitch setup on the *** end of my truck, with sledstops mounted onto the hitch? I'm trying to get an idea before I pull out the welder and any help is appreciated.

Not much help on Photoshop but Home - BigChevyHitch.com should give you some ideas on what you might want to do.

Yeah I love his hitches, just can't afford them, Wonder how hard it will be to reinforce and add to the stock hitch to get something like that?

To reinforce it just weld some heavy 2.5" or 3" angle iron on the back side.

Have you ever seen a chev hitch? They are hydroformed tubing, not your typical boxed reciever...

The tube on the stock hitch rarely bends but the receiver tube that is welded to it cracks and pulls off. The cross tube will twist but not much. You could just reinforce it and run it.
