So in fact, they will make the spacing between the two tubes to our spec. Also, you'll notice that the 3" single outlet side has no flange to clamp the hose on, but they wi...

Seems like a fair price for a custom fabbed stainless TIG welded piece, I'd be willing to pay it.

Has anyone tried to fit the Draw Tite / Reese 65015 front receiver hitch on a Bronco? They're listed for 4wd 90s f250s and f350s.... Are the frames substantially different in front between the 3/4 - 1 ton vs the 1/2 ton trucks???
