Looks to me like you undo and remove your 50mm ball and bolt the hitch on.

| Post subject: | Treg Hitch |
Just have a quick question in regards to a Treg Hitch. I may be purchasing a camper trailer in the coming weeks that is fitted with a Treg Hitch. Being a noob I only have a standard 50m ball attached to my tow bar and I'm guessing a Treg Hitch won't couple to it. What do I need to change on my tow bar to get it to work and where can you buy them from? Thanks for the help Josh |

its a bit taller than the 50mm ball so check your clearance on your tow ball to your door so it clears as you open it. my tow-bar is so high i have to remove the hitch from the receiver to open the rear door

Are treg hitches supposed to be pretty good? They seem to be considerably cheaper than the "ozhitch" i was looking at. |

My poly block hitch has the trailer sitting at the same height as it did with a ball hitch however the actual hitch is lower so I can now open the GVs rear door when the trailer is connected. |

Since we've turned this thread into what hitch do you have, I'm going with a combination pintle hook and tow ball. It's probably going to be louder than the hitch mentioned at the top but I reckon it's going to be just fine. |
