Hitch kit?

Post by 79 Spitfire »

So I was looking on the parts catalog on the internet and see a optional hitch kit was available for my Trailfire I am parting out. Are these rare cause I have the same kit on the Trailfire.

I'm not sure I'd call them "rare" but I had one NOS kit awhile back and it sold quickly. I'd bet there are several other NOS kits around. DA

It doesn't have a pin its just the hinge and hitch, so I'm not sure if thats the kit or if a pin was included.

I like to install them on all my sleds. Then I keep a small clevis in the glove box.

I find that most of the sleds I come across have them... :usa:
