try jc whitney. i just got a hitch and a reciever for like 140. but i had free shipping. either way even with shipping you may still be lookin at probably 155 or so.. If you're serious about spending some cash, pm me and i might be able to save you a little cash.

well the only thing about craigslist is that you hardly ever find one for a ranger. I think i've seen one. but depending on how good you are at welding you might be able to fab one up if you buy one that's too big. i dunno.

You know you will need to mod the hitch for the 3" bodylift right?

If not it will look like this






I had mine cut then bolted it back and welded it. I towed 2880 pounds with it

Have you tried looking in JY's?

I would think you should be able to find one off another Ranger.
