Off road hitch

[MOguy]

I have seen complete hitches (vehicle and trailer side) that allow for more articulation.

Does anybody make a hitch for just the vehicle side so you don't have to change the hitch on the trailer?

So, you’re looking for something half ASSembly?

You can’t have two pivot points on the hitch which is what you’d end up with if you kept the ball hitch and added something else. Couplers take 30-60 minutes to swap even if welding is involved. Best to just do it right and change everything.

You could put a NATO swivel pintle hitch on your tow vehicle (bolt it to a pintle hitch adaptor)

Rotating pintle hook for receiver hitch

I found a rotating pintle hitch that fits a 2" receiver. Due to issues with my lunette bar not rotating I found this as my fix for now. P/N TXO17916 I got mine at Redneck Trailers. [video]

I will probably go with a pintle. I was just hoping to find something so I wouldn't have to modify my trailer. I already had the pintle side that'll slide into the Jeep.

I picked this up to the garage sale a couple years back for ten bucks, this is what I'll slip into the Jeep.
