Re: (ET) Hitch adapter

["steves" <ssawtelle fcc net>]

The sleeve hitch adapter bolts to the U-bracket behind the rear axle. The
lift can then raise and lower it. So that would be a solid connection. On
the hitch adapter, I think some models had a pin that would hold rear
stabber units from sliding out. It would go into the rear ledge just behind
the battery box. Mine don't have it.

You might be able to just use the towing arm that bolts to the U-bracket. 
It
may have to be beefed up some to keep it from bending.
