This post is about finding and setting up a trailer hitch to haul equipment for the cabin.
Let’s get right to it, here is what this post will cover:
Firstly, it is important to find a hitch that is appropriate for your vehicle. Thus, it is important to note that trailer hitches are not universal.

A different model may have a different build and attach at a different location. If you’d like to find what works for your vehicle, look at this website.
