    3x2 Receiver Adapter?

    I have a 3” receiver hitch on my truck and I have a 3” stinger with a 2” & 2-5/16” ball, but I need a solid steel, one-piece 3x2 adapter for my winch cradle and travel trailer weight distribution hitch. The Husky Towing 33129 is what I have in mind but apparently no one has them in stock. Any ideas or suggestions? Thanks

      I've got those but there's lots of slop in it and they're a pain in the *** to get lined up and pinned.

        Weld the 2 adapters together?

          I welded a stop inside the 2-1/2 to keep the 2” from going too far in. Made them way easier to pin and with a little tongue weight I never feel the slop

            I may have to do this. Sure seems like there would be a good, commercially available, "one piece" answer to the 3x2 dilemma.

              That would be an expensive "bushing" for a very limited market. 3"X1/2" wall tubing with no welded seam inside, is essentially what we're talking about. One could be built from 3"X1/2" bar, and 2"X1/2" bar, beveled, welded, and ground, the proper way, and a hole drilled for the pin.

                I guess that's why they're so hard to find. Husky Towing makes one that sells for $35-$40, but NOBODY has it in stock. There's a composite one on Amazon, but it gets poor reviews and costs $90

                  Have you checked with redneck trailer parts, or Caple Shaw?

                    Not specifically, I just Googled it every way I could think of. I'll check them, though. Thanks

                    Didn't really want the extended, welded type but the other one looks like what I want. Thanks
