  • Let's see your hitch

    Like the title says, post some pics of your hitches. I'm about to make one with a 2" receiver so I can use a dirtbike carrier. But I want to go to the frame (tow hooks?) so it's stronger as opposed to a rusted out bumper.

    Do a search and somewhere you will find a non-functional one like mine.
    I just use mine to display my favorite 2" receiver cover.


    Check out this Hummer front hitch. It almost looks like it can fit onto the rear festiva bumper.

      I was in the process of modding one off a '96 (I think) Wrangler to fit Green Car. It wasn't going to take much, mainly just shortening it and redrilling one of the holes. But since I've been driving the EGT a lot with its frame hitch, having a hitch on the festiva just didn't seem as necessary anymore lol. I'll still probably finish it one day though.
      No festiva for me ATM...

        I searched about 4 pages of search results and couldn't really find good pics except for Movin's hitch.

        and why is that hitch non-functional?

        oh it just mounts to the spare well, which is kinda flimsy

          Robust hitch

          bp71,

          See attached photos of one of my 93s with custom hitch I had made.

          Note that the "frame hooks" differ between old (88) and newer (90+) Festies. I don't have any 89s, but I suspect they're like 88s). Hopefully you have 90+.
