And another thing to add. All of the OE round tubing hitches and stronger pound for pound then square hitches. Square does not like torsional flex, as in a hitch moving its load up and down hitting bumps or forward and back under braking, Square tubes loads stress and eventually breaks. Car/truck manufactures have high dollar forming tools and good engineers and can work with round tubing. Most hitch makers use square tubing for ease and speed of production. So don't let the round hitch worry you.

It would not be my choice:

And also, comparing the Curt and the Factory GM hitches...
...the GM is a Class-III hitch and the Curt is a Class-V hitch.

That is a weld that should never been done. too high of a stress area.. most good aluminum draw bars a cut from billet or forged 1 piece. and you will never have a problem and they look cool

look cool , that's extremely critical and or important ! what is rating on the [ good looks drop tow bar ] BTW rates will be null and void with surge brakes / surge brakes are not real brakes as in large heavy load apps / u guys ever worry or think bout insurance?

My LOOKS COOL is 15000 Lb 2000lb tongue wt

Can you share a link?

I can take a picture and see if I can remember where I finally bought it. It took me a while to track that capacity down with the drop needed

[ATTACH=CONFIG]553984[/ATTACH]Diversi-tech 2.5 inch. And I was wrong. It's 12k and 2k tongue

I bought one of these.. #ws-10 2.5 its pricey...
its works great..

Nice setup. I like the forged construction. In doing some searching though, I can only find said product rated for 10K though. That may be all that's available now.
I still prefer a fixed drawbar over adjustable.
