Location: Fort Worth | hey folks, a new boarder just bought a GN with a hitch problem. The pin is not ailgned with all the holes. It goes in halfway. What should he do? Can he place a heavy bolt inside instead of pin?? Any suggestions on how to get it fixed? |

Any suggestions on how to get it fixed? Are you talking about the latch that locks the hitch on the ball?

Don't hit it too hard...you don't want to stress the metal. a few taps in well planned placed realigned it. check for stress cracks and if found you will need to have a welder look at it for safety purposes. |
