light hitch for 09

Post by leemur »

I've been through the searches and seen a couple that rate at 2000 lbs but really just need a light duty stylish one for pulling a little brush trailer to the dump a couple times a summer. Probably won't even leave it on in winter.

Love a pic or two. never seen a pic of any mounted yet.
Thanks, Lee

I have a hitch for my 09 awd, there was only one kind to buy... it was what they call a sport hitch and rated 2000 lb, it cost me 150 dollars new and I also had to but a light harness which was 50+ dollars. As for the hook up 15 to 20 min for the works... youtube has a great video on how to install it. it was by hidden hitch i just keep the ball part of the hitch in the storage trunk.
