Why I need a hitch for the FZJ





The draw-tite that came with the truck is in less than usable condition. The frame, however, is in good condition with only light surface rust in patches, believe it or not.

Looks like you just need a little JB weld and some duct tape! Good as new!

I just drove it up to Cameron, MO and back last weekend and got a touch over 16 with the cruise set at 68ish.

Yes, I'll take the hitch! I'll be in Springfield next weekend, so I can pick it up then. PM me what you need for it so I can bring some cash.
