Finding a RAV4 Hitch Receiver
Hey Guys,
Would appreciate any suggestions on how or where to find a reasonably priced hitch receiver for my 07 RAV4 V-6. I spent today with UHaul, while they installed and then removed the worst designed receiver I have likely ever seen. It was slung down so far that it would have taken a 4" reversed ball bar to even make it work. Was also only pinned on with 4 bolts, where an additional 2 or 3 are usually run into the bumper plates.
It is true that they only wanted $250 for the entire job compared to my local dealer who wants $400 just for the hitch. And they did nice clean work; just had a lousy part design. Had my Tundra done at UHaul and was fine.
TRD has the well fitted PT228-42061 receiver on "sale" for $345 with $50+ shipping put it right back at $400. I will pay this if I have to, but makes my butt ache to support high dealer markup. Any suggestions?
JMark, Pocatello
