    Looking for someone with a used hitch ball mount or a source for a new one that has the two bolt mounts to fit the original drawbar of the early CJ5s that allow for a standard trailer hitch to be mounted back far enough to get a utility trailer on it. Kinda in a hurry as have to move a bought today goat house to the pen location and won't be able to take my car back there so my trailer is stuck with 500lbs of an outhouse til I come up with one. Yeah I get it could be made but I don't have the large enough hole saws to make it at the moment as we just moved. Have searched the usual suppliers and drawing a blank so if someone knows where to get one or has one they can get out for a reasonable price lmk and I'll paypal ya asap.

    Thanks guys, didn't even think of a bolt on receiver. Was looking more for just a bolt on triangle thing that I've seen on some in pics. This works perfect for me.

    Had this for 47 years, stumbled across it a few days ago. Can not believe it did not get scrapped or lost with all the times I have moved.

    That's exactly what I was hoping for. Went and picked up the Horrible Freight one and while I could probably make it work it is darn heavy and the holes don't line up well etc. Sending ya a message
