Is that unistrut? Well I think the truck can handle that load, but the hitch...I have and will yooper rig stuff to make it work in a pinch but that is a whole new level of scary cheapness.

Looks like unistrut. Click to enlarge.

Saw gravel on an open trailer yesterday. Today it was a trailer of wood chips, looked like a blizzard going down the interstate. Probably lost half their load when I passed

The enlarged version still doesn't show any brake wiring, or a safety chain that would be the last hope if that mess collapses.

Most places, it would get ticketed as soon as a cop saw it!

An old photo:

I love the picture!

I still have my two tone 67 sitting out back. It was a tank and served me well on road for years, then off road for fun, then snow plowing duties. It rusting apart now but still runs strong just need to replace the shift linkage. The old 3 on the tree always wears over the years and they start getting stuck between gears or locked in 1 st or reverse.
