Tried that today, they claim it was thier cost price already. Then i cancelled the order after laughing at them for 5 mins.

 

You know what. Just got thinking about I dont know why i should be just taking in the azz like this. They agreed to sell it to me AT COST, NOT FULL RETAIL. I'm calling the salesguy tomorrow and calling his bluff, then i'll take it from there.

I just spent 30k on a new truck, they can take a few bucks off a damn hitch for gods sake.

I think they raised the price just so i wouldn't want it in the end.

 

Go with the aftermarket, the factory receiver is short and can cause problems, see picture.

Woops, seems I can't post pictures

I have A DT-STBM6600 and the tensioning pin is only half way in the receiver tube....

here is the message from DT when I queried them

"I actually own the exact same truck as you and I am using a DT-STBM6400. Ford light duty trucks all have shorter than typical receiver tubes and the tensioning pin needs to be as far away from the hitch pin as possible to be effective, so we have positioned it in the current location to be as effective as possible on most all applications. Please let me know if you have any other questions or concerns and thanks for purchasing a DT product."



I am thinking I might have to re-drill the receiver

 

Whats a tensioning pin? I use three different ball mounts and they all work fine.

Edit: I just googled that part number and now I see your problem.

 

I dont see a pic, what do you mean?

 

Sorry, posting rules do not allow me to post attachments (pics)....
