    Hey Guys,
    I'm looking for help installing a hitch for my bike trailer. I'm almost positive it will need to be a custom setup. Was wondering who out there has done this already and if I could get some help/ideas.
    thanks, Derek

    I ordered a universal class III for a pickup trk. from rockauto.com. It's heavy .kind of over kill but looks good . Had to make hole for gas filler hose to pass thru it . That was a little work but real happy with way it turned out
    Can send pictures and order #. Later time
