OD that might work, you would have to get an extension/long receiver to go out far enough to clear the pintle as you go up. If found it was easier to have the receiver which allowed for my pintle hitch, normal ball hitch, bike rack, future winch rack to all go into one unit.
Yes that will work. Please note below:
The combination pintle/Ball hitch assembly bolted to the bumper is subject to how good your bumper and associated bolts strength, age etc. It is an okay design, but not rock solid and for obvious reasons the above should be inspected and or replaced...
73M819 just put a curtis on my M1009. I think that all the the receiver hitches all have challenges. The curtis is a nice hitch and would bolt up to a stock k5 in less than 30 minutes. For a M1009 expect 3-4 hours dependant on your approach.
Approaches
1.) Leave hitch assembly in place and...
Sorry me and Ron ran the numbers on a Gun Truck build last night and they got scary quick :( I am going to be an observer and admire those that have been down this path!

Talked to the sawmill yesterday as many of you know it has rained for 8 days straight in GA so today is the first sunny day and will allow the red oak to be pulled out of the kiln. That being done then they need about 3-4 days to get the rough cut to the right...

Airtex E8135
One died during running
One died when the fuel tank ran empty and the pump was shut off within 30 seconds but it did not matter
That is my experience.
Voltage has not been checked since the initial installation.
The third pump now is installed but only used for priming.
I have the Airtex, same type on M62 but in 24 volts. I have burned out 2 of these pumps before going back and fixing the mechanical pump.
If you do go that route I would recommend you that have a tested spare in the vehicle at all times as they are not that reliable.
So do you really want...
Are you going to liner the interior, exterior or both?
Do you really want to take the glass out? Not much metal to liner up around the glass that could not be done with a good tape job. Then once you take out the glass how do you keep from getting all over the exterior paint job?
The Pink looks great on your trailer. You should do some accents with the pink color on the fenders to go along with the storage box. Good thing I was not there to do some spraying with the Pink Spray gun!
