I goes bck farr enough to attach to the main frame and the bck beam , so it
will take 1,000lbs and bend the main frame as the cross beams on the hitch
ties int it.
The HD hitch was developed by a person origioally in Utah and he quit
producing them so we started copying it as it was the best deign .
