[QUOTE="Lubbockguy1979, post: 208595, member: 385"] We built one. My opinion was it wasn't built as heavy as I would have liked. My step dad a fabricator/ welder who has one very similar to mine swears it is extremely heavy and over built..... After a trip of over 1000mi pulling a 32ft stock trailer. Mostly empty only a run from san antonio to ft worth with it loaded with furniture and house hold stuff. I'd guess less that 15k trailer weight. It is bent. The hitch I saved some cash on is now bent and welded to my truck so... I now will be grinding the pos off. My initial thought of bracing would have aleviated the issue but hindsight is not valuable in this case since I could literally have injured others, my self, my wife, totaled a few vehicles etc. I personally will end up removing the hitch which will require at least unbolting and raising the bed one side at a time while a grind the welds off or full bed removal. That $399 b&w hitch that is a no drill full bolt on sounds dirt cheap now [/QUOTE]
