I don't wanna hijack this thread, and since you're in jacksonville I was gonna see what you thought.

I was actually looking at those hitches today guys and couldn't find any under 80, but they're nice so we'll see!

I bought my 8" drop to pull my 25' boat around from EasternMarine.com

I got it here:

or 10" here:
http://shop.easternmarine.com/index....5&categoryID=0

Good Luck!

FYI: I got an adjustable height hitch at Menards last week for 16.99. It is rated for 5000 lbs and adjusts from like 4" to 7".

Even if you are going with a cheaper one, I would recommend spending a little more and getting a stainless ball. Chrome just turns into a ball of rust after a very short time.

While I picked up my currenty hitch at Wally, I only needed 2" drop and liked the complete kits they sell in a case. For your needs you may want to check out U-Haul. You might end up spending a couple more dollars but I've found that they carry the widest selections (the stores where they install hitches... full service, not an independent renter).
