Concealed Hitch Receiver Available Again!

[Rene M]

Sorry its the only pic i have of the butt.. I will shoot a better one later today.

[tom4bren]

Any questions?

I gots a question.

I contacted Fat Man Fabricators & they didn't know WTF I was talking about. I was told that the only hitch they make is for the LR Discovery.

I can get 'Welder Guy' to make them but I need one for him to take measurements from. Have you installed yours yet? If not, can I borrow it to have drawings made or can you get drawings made?

Please do....

I wants one for my b-day.

[tom4bren]

Dang it. Yer not making this easy on me are you? That only gives me about 2 weeks to get'r done & I need my hitch this weekend.

I s'pose you want the ORIGINAL Tone version again?

I can't believe I'm saying this....but.....I was just sayin' to hubby, boy I sure wish I could find one of the Tone hitches to buy, it's the ONLY type I'd put on, (No Curt, etc..)....hmmm, I'm pretty sure I'm in if this can be made again.

Tom, ya gotta come thru for us now! No pressure or anything!

yes. Please kindly dismantle your VX yet again for me.

if you get it done by my b-day, I would be impressed. But I will most likely have a delayed b-day present, unless I go with a curt hitch.

[Mile High VX]

Me too kindly Mr. Tom....

[tjh]

I would like a drawing with dimensions of the said hitch . Perhaps a picture are two .

I know a fabricator .

Anyone know what brand hitch this is:





If I didn't already have this one I would take one of the concealed hitches. I can't find a name on it anywhere but I kinda like it, I'm sure everyone else thinks its hideous lol

[tom4bren]

Well ... bad news for me = good news for you.

My VX is outta comission for the forseeable future. I had an accident with it this morning on the way to work. Luckly no body damage but it jacked the drivers side steering/suspension when I parked on top of a van. I'll start another thread on the subject when I figger out how to get the pix from my phone downloaded to my 'puter.

Since the Proton won't be on the road for a while, I'll try to pull the hitch this weekend so I can hand it over to Welder Guy to copy. First step is to get her towed back to F'burg - she's stuck in the tow lot in Dumphries right now.

Ganz, Fatman didn't seem interested in the hitch. If you wanna give them a call to make sure before I get Welder Guy spun up, lemme know.

[RamAirZ]

That sucks man, just glad your OK, and it's a plus that the VX is pretty much ok as well

[tom4bren]

It looks like my hitch is pointed down slightly. I'm pretty sure that the bumper bent rather than the hitch. The shop will probably start tearing into the front end today so they prolly won't get to the rear until next week. I'll definitely have them leave the hitch off for now so that I can hand it over to Welder Guy to copy.

Does anyone still have Tone's installation instructions?

[MSHardeman]

I THINK, and don't hold me to this, that the hitch install instructions might be on Tone's Shop Manual CD (if you got it from him and didn't download it from the site). My CD is at home so I can check it later tonight unless someone else gets to it first.

[JAMAS]

Tom-

Have you been able to get a sample over to welder guy to copy?.....

I got my hitch (IOU) as an early b-day present....so whenever it is completed, I am ready to purchase......

If you want, I can start a new thread. Or you can if you want.

Thanks!
