Need a Hitch: Freightliner Chassis Pusher

Our current hitch is not beyond repair just yet, but it will need to be sleeved and braced so we don't bust it off again.

By the looks of the pictures you were lucky with the rust it was cracked for sometime. Good luck with the repairs.

I believe Camping world has a store in Bowling Green. They may be able to help.

2 years ago a friend of mine needed welding done at that race and the ladies at the entry ticket booth to the track directed him to a welding shop that took good car of him promptly, it was within 3-5 miles of the track. He took an axle to the shop, but they probably can get your rig in their lot or maybe come to you. Go see them at the booth where you paid to get in and ask
