Just finished installing the “Bed Saver”. I did have one problem. It seems “Blue Ox” just bought the “Bed Saver” line. They changed the specs to include “Ny-lock” nuts instead of the original nut and lock washer. The problem is the new bolts have an unthreaded shoulder that on my hitch (Reese 20K) extended out past the metal side plates making it impossible to torque down the nuts. I had to use the old lock washers to take up the space. I called “Blue Ox” and advised them of the situation so they may change the bolts or provide a washer in future kits. Other than that it went on pretty easy. Glad I was at home and had my air tools.
