[V8] Trailer hitch for sale??

[Buchholz, Steven]

... I picked up a 200q20v hitch from the marketplace ... don't think it was made by Da-Lan.  It clearly indicated that it would not work for the V8 ... but I nestled it up there and could not figure out why.  I expect I'll learn when I'm drilling the holes to bolt it up ... ;-)
