What size drop hitch y’all running
« on: November 10, 2022, 10:51:36 AM »
Calling all lifted truck owners. What size drop hitches are you running. I have a 1982 crew cab that’s 12 valve swapped. The truck has a 6” shackle flip and a 2 inch body lift. What size drop hitch should I get. I’m thinking a 8-10” drop but that seems like a lot to me. So if you have a 6” lift and use your truck as a truck, what size drop hitch should I get.

Thanks y’all

Level your trailer, backup to it, and bust out the tape measure.
