Option to hitch diaper

[JD.]

Yeah I still have to take it off when I want to tow something or add my bike rack but.... It looks better than the diaper!!

Maybe it's the angle. Where is the hitch pin?

those D-rings have a threaded pin you screw on, you can see it on right side

It is actually a SS bolt with a nut. It is behind the receiver, you can see the bolt head in this pic

Not to be a negative nelly, but if you actually plan to use that for recovery, you might want to at least upgrade that to a grade 8 bolt for similar shear strength to a hitch pin. Or just stick to something rated for the job to begin with.

I don't mind the hitch diaper - (and I haven't used it yet) but that small space looks like a real PITA.

I did buy they perfectly sized hitch pin someone recommended and the rings to make clipping on the chains easier but man that a really small space.

I'm happy using one of my favorite tow hitch covers locked in with my bike rack pin with a chrome plated lock.

How friggen cool would it be to have something cover up the rough parts and only see the shiny American flag there. Damn it.

That would be ideal!

Anyone with proper measuring skills and a dremel could easily make that happen.

Actually, I've grown to really like the look "as is"
