I have almost completed my diesel swap and im look for a hitch to go on my hardbody. I dont plan on doing anything crazy but i may need to tow a car trailer with a truck on it. Long story short i want a class 4 hitch or 10000 lb capacity does anyone know were to get one for a hardbody?

Easy find - Most online automotive venders stock them. Price is in the $200 range. Possible also to find a universal hitch. The hardbody application goes from 91 -97 Nissan Hardrbody. Myself I went with a used hitch. Price range in the $50 - $100. Check online - Car-part.com. or Hollander. Hollander only list the year you select,so plan on spending time looking up the part. Both sites you can enter your zip code to enable you to find a salvage yard. Check out the classified section on this site?? Note: Make sure to check the leaf springs.

My mistake I apologize for the wrong information. The class is based on the manufactures specs. Might have to fab.one. It's possible to make one. Word of CAUTION- In today's world anytime you exceed the manufacturer recommended specs.you open yourself up to liability issues in the event of a vehicle accident. Also check your state DOT laws. The laws vary from state to state. The air bags would be a plus. Also check the rear spring shackles to ensure they will support the weight.
