Combination hitch?

[BoFuller]

I saw this hitch on the back of a dump truck parked in town. Is this a standard hitch available or is this something someone made? I have a pintle hitch but the most likely thing I will be pulling with my F8000 dump truck is my 25 ft travel trailer, so I need the ball instead of a ring. Would this hitch work for a ball hitch and a pintle hitch?? This is definitely something I want to pursue.

I see more of them on smaller trucks than regular pintle hooks.

I see it on etrailer now. Thanks! I had never noticed that hitch before, probably because you don't see them on pickups, just larger trucks. :thumbsup:

Yep, good product that has been around for years. Just check the capacity rating to make sure it will handle your load.

odd, my experience is the exact opposite.. maybe a regional thing?

I could be way off on that. I just don't recall seeing one before, but now that I have, I will be putting one on my dump truck.
