Hello all,
Yes it has been a few months since Kathy and I purchased our Montana,
Re: we are the Sacramento area folks who purchased the 5th in Chicago and then sat here patiently
for several months as we waited for non-icy roads so we could bring our baby home. Well, we are actually leaving in 3 or 4 days for the trek. And so we have at least one question; We purchased a Pullrite 18K superglide and it's now installed in our 07 DA.
Now here is the small problem; This hitch set up requires a capture plate [which we have] to be installed on the pin box. I [Jim] plan to install it when I get to the windy city. I installed the superglide yesterday and that went pretty well. So now I find out that the capture plate installation depends upon the precise configuration of the 06 Monty pin box [flange or no flange, etc.]. So we're asking [and hoping] if there is anyone out there with an 06 2955 that could email us digital photos of the pin box [side to side and under looking up]. If possible, that would be great. I want to make sure I bring all the right tools!
Also, we promise to provide trip updates on this our maiden voyage [we are brand new to towing a 5-ver].
We are planning on dead-heading east on 80 and then with Monty-in-tow we will take the southern route back to CA.
Thanks so much,
Jim 'N' Kathy [and Sami the yellow lab shedding machine]
