If you want a class 2, you can find them new still. Class 3 hitches are harder to find. Reese, DrawTite, and Uhaul all made them - and they are all the same hitch. I say "made" because they've been out of production for a few years. Sedan and wagon hitches are different as well, so be on the lookout for that. If you do a search of the forum, a member here did draw up plans to produce another hitch, and had it built at a fab shop.

OR, depending on your location, if you're in, say... Arizona, you can contact U-Haul and they will build you a custom hitch.


Good luck, happy wagoning, and welcome to the forum. Post an introduction for us. Very Happy

Class 2 should more than do it. I have a Class 2 on my wagon; I occasionally rent a 5x 8 Uhaul trailer (box). It does the job. I have had it 7 or 8 years. I think I paid $125 for it.

Yeah. You can safely tow a 5x8 with a class 2 hitch all day long.
