Safety Hitch

Ok I’ll bite on this. I owned one and have since sold it. It was a wonderful way to be able to carry our ATV in the bed of the truck. It was built very well and it did give you some extra stopping power. Would I buy one again? No. Joe did make some changes after ours but still wouldn’t buy one. If you are going around a curve and it’s tight the hitch will be pushed by the fiver scrubbing your trucks rear tires and the safety hitch tires. Now if you turn your turn signal on it will lift the lock on the axel and will not do this. You can back it up but it is a pain. It just adds more length in an already tight area in most parks. For what most everyone is doing with their fiver I would not spend 11,000+ for one again. Then if you don’t like it you may get 4K for it. JMHO
