Nice. 😎 Can you add the length of the receiver stub and location of the pin hole? 🙏
[EDIT] Never mind - I didn't see your other attached photos, and I can guess from there. Can you get an estimate of the round plate thickness?Last edited by W427; 05-21-2020, 06:03 AM.

Unlike videos I have seen of spares retained by a hitch pin, this one does not rock or bounce from play in the coupling. I have not removed it to see if the connection was compressed by the bolt or if shims or wedges were used. I have not tried the rear receiver yet.

I imagine that works. 😄 My 2nd Itvee had hitch wobble, and I tried shims and wedges but they failed. I bought some hitch clamps. I found there are many styles of anti-rattle clamps and pins to choose from, although I've heard some simply bolt-on an exhaust clamp to firm them up. Not using them before, I bought these, but I'm open to other suggestions:
