    Yes. (super shallow offset wheels may require a wheel spacer, but I think that's only Jeeps and Mercs)

    Made in the USA by welders with AS9100 certification. These guys also weld stuff for people like Porsche, Tesla, GM, Faraday Future, Space X (parts on rockets, the US Gov (submarines, ships) etc.

    This is Kenneth. Kenneth is pictured here beginning to weld a Solo. Kenneth is a good welder.

    Kenneth, may in fact, in this picture, be welding the High Clearance Solo that @Unchained 5150 has in his hot little hands right now...which is kinda cool.

    Super dumb newbie question for picture 2

    If it fits into the receiver what is to the left of the picture ? Does that look like another receiver opening ?

    Here's a primer on the High Clearance using precision CAD:
    The Solo has the truck mount tube welded to the side of the receiver (rcvr) shaft, so it sits hitch level.
    The Solo High Clearance (HC) has a 4" steel tube welded in between shaft and truck mount tube, so it sits 4" above the receiver. IMG_2221_LI.jpg

    I noticed no license plate relocator on yours

    I imagine my plate on gen 1 is same place essentially as yours

    With a high mount will your stock plate be more visible ?
