Finnegan. This has your name all over it.

ZStig · 10-10-2013, 05:13 PM

me too. Just a bit out of my budget. Wish it was $400 shipped

ZStig · 10-10-2013, 05:15 PM

do you have an approximate weight?

griffer · 10-11-2013, 10:22 AM

Do you have a pic of what it looks like without the ball on it? Like up close and personal?

Sorry I don't have a pic without the ball mount. But the hitch is hidden behind the grill, the only noticeable difference is the 2''x2'' hole cut in the grill.

Here is an example of the grill and diffuser cut:

Z4M specific and custom built, right?

I'm following this thread and I'm a little confused. The hitch you are selling is different that the one shown in your reply post. The reply post car had Arizona plates.
The AZ car looks like it bolts to the bumper beam and is a smaller setup, but your's has much wider 'arms' which I'm guessing also go to the bumper beam? Did you worry that the smaller setup wouldn't support the weight?

ZStig · 10-16-2013, 07:06 PM

is that wood inside the car?

Daemonblitz · 10-27-2013, 02:39 PM

OMG I want this hitch so bad, then I can tow my bike with it...

ZStig · 10-27-2013, 09:22 PM

now I'm interest. Could you please weigh it for me?

Gt4 · 10-28-2013, 05:41 PM

I just put the hitch on the scale and it weight 14Lbs. Shouldn't be that bad on acceleration with a VT-500 SC kit

ZStig · 10-28-2013, 08:29 PM

what were the specs on the ball mount? Can I buy one from Amazon?

Gt4 · 10-28-2013, 08:44 PM

I had a 1-1/4" ball mount 1-7/8" ball with around 3" of rise, I will measure the rise/drop on the ball mount to make sure and let you know. This was working for me with my suspension drop and my Harbor Freight trailer.

But if you don't have a Harbor Freight trailer, you will need to find the good ball mount rise/drop for your needs.

It might not be the same ball mount for your application to get the trailer to level. You will need to find this first before ordering a 1-1/4" ball mount with the right ball size (1-7/8" or 2") on Amazon.

back on Sale, I never installed it. Cousin got an SUV

Gt4 · 04-02-2014, 05:10 PM

If someone interested to buy the hitch, I have the rear bumper grill and diffuser with holes in them that gives access to put the lock and the ball mount.

That way you don't have to cut in yours and can go back to stock look if you decide to remove it later.

Looking for $140 shipped and Paypal fees included for both.

Shipkiller · 04-02-2014, 08:00 PM

I used your hitch as a template to manufacture my own last weekend. All the parts are being welded now...

Gt4 · 04-02-2014, 08:10 PM

Cool! Make sure to post some pics
