Pintle Hook Ball Mount Recommendation for Rear of Flat Bed Truck
Updated 06/18/2018 | Published 06/15/2018 >
Question:
I have a flatbed wrecker with a wheel lift on the back end I am searching for a pintle hitch and or adapter to add one of these type of hitches to my truck. Please get back with me and see what we can come up with? Thank you and have a blessed day.

Expert Reply:
If your flatbed happened to have a 2-1/2 inch hitch at the rear of it you could use the Curt Pintle Hook with 2-5/16" Ball for 2-1/2" Hitches # C48012 and be set. If you have something different back there and do not have a hitch at all email me back a picture of the setup and I can see if there's a better way.
