I am looking for one for my '70 C10 for towing my boat. Got any ideas as to where I can get one at a reasonable price? I need a frame mount system because I my rear bumper isn't made for towing.

I used them a few times before, no problems.

I want to install a hitch on my 60 C10 too. Check out www.etrailer.com they have hitches for your truck at reasonable prices. I bought from them before and was very satisfied, and the shipping is free for anything over $150.00.

how's your fabricating skill's ?either make one to fit the height you need or cut a older one to fit .drawtite makes a #75034 but any thing for that year frame is going to be a driller

i made the reciever hitch for my 64 c20 at the same time i made the wrecker bed, towing cradle, and rear bumper. i used super heavy duty channel iron that fit around the rear frame. i bent the rear brackets on my 66 years ago towing a bobcat. i see bumpers all the time tilted down from too much tounge weight. i think you can bil your own that will be much stronger than you could ever buy. you can buy reciever tubes from a trailer supply. you can save a lot of $$$$, just mine isn't powder coated.
