FREE. Never used 2nd Gen Hitch. I bought this but ended up going to uhaul due to some time constraints.

it’s too heavy to ship but if you want it it’s yours if you pick it up in Somerville. Alternatively I can drop it off if you are somewhere between Somerville and Danvers (work) MA.

Doug.

 

I would love that for my 2010..South Shore

 

I will PM you.

 

I can Express that if needed. Just let me know and we can try to arrange time.

 

Just wanted to say thanks for y’all coming thru to help out Jared yesterday!

we thought it was a shot in the dark that maybe one person could come thru in the next few days… within 2 hours we had 3 peeps ready to go out of their way.

thank you mod dayers!

 

So what exactly was going on yesterday that needed emergency U bolts?

 

This is what I wanna know haha

 

Threads on 2 of them were stripped clean, one was bent but usable. And apparently I’m really strong and snapped one leaving his rig stranded while we started the search.

 

@AllTacosFloat Do you want to update the Op for 6/24?

 

Done sir

 

Too much power man....

 

Saw Jared today in Home Depot and got the story. Great community helping each other out!

 

@Brownmatthall , you get your stuff all figured out?

 

Interested in zapping this onto my tcase shift lever? I need to bend the rod coming up a tad bit more because it rubs the console when the tcase is in low.. That I can do with a set of torch’s but I don’t have access to a working welder at the moment to get this threaded portion welded on.(I was lazy and didn’t want to thread the 1/2 rod)

 

Yeah I can, its going to look pretty damn ugly if we have a big gap to fill but I have no problem doing it. Could grind it down afterwards.

 

I’ll bring extra fire extinguishers
and marshmallows!






Seriously tho, i think I have some fire blankets around. More the merrier on the interior.

 

I have some welding blankets and fire extinguishers. I was thinking we would take it out to weld....

The welding on the trucks is going to be done on a wood floor which isnt great but Im going to get some cement board to put down. The plan eventually is to take it out and pour concrete

 

takes 5 minutes to pull the shifter out of the floor so no worries on starting fires lol.

I’m holding it at that angle for the pic but there’s not much of a gap when they’re held together. Doesn’t need to be pretty as I’m hoping to use the weld as a stop for a zip tie to keep the boot itself up over the rod to keep it clean. (If that makes sense)

 

Yep makes sense, can you make it the 24th? I think we will be doing more in the future if you cant make it.

 

yeah man 24th works for me, I’m ready to finish up this project I started almost a year ago lol
