Even have one on my car so I don't have to do truck stuff with my truck.

     Just make sure it is for your year and make, these old chevy truck frames curve up where the bolts would go closest to the cab, I just put one on and the legs farthest away from the reciever are curved up.

#2: There is no such thing as impossible, it just takes longer.

Beastie I will say it again the U-haul hitches are not very heavy duty! I have one, they are OK for light pulling. You need a hitch that goes around the leaf spring bracket for more total mounting area. You haul makes 2 models for these trucks, both are class III, go big or go home, do it once and do it right!
