On European hitches, the way the ball attaches to the hitch is different from here. The ball itself is the same as any U.S. 2" ball, so this has nothing to do with how you attach your trailer. As long as your trailer takes a 2" ball (most do, but a few light-duty ones take 1-7/8") what is included is all you will need. (And as was noted, you could always modify it into a receiver hitch down the road, and thereby use anything you wanted.) All I'm saying is that you couldn't buy a U.S. 1-7/8" ball and bolt it right onto the hitch because the mounting method is different. - Ron Salmon The Bus Depot, Inc. http://www.busdepot.com (215) 234-VWVW |
