            I know this isn't the best pic, but it's all I really have now. You can see what part of the mount looks like on the festy hitch sitting under the car. Mine bolts in with a few brackets and bolts, and also has an arm that comes off the middle of it and was bolted into the spare tire well...

            But like I said, if no one else provides pics, I'll get better ones tomorrow night

                      I notice the max trailer weight for that hitch is 3500 lbs, so keep it under that...;-)

                            Yes, that is true!
                            Copy made, very much heavier than original, now just have to return it.

                              im not sure exactly what that came off of but i ran the pn# through google and it looks like it was designed for early 80's-early 90's ford/chevy/dodge midsize vehicles then a ebay listing popped up and its the same number but different mounting brackets, so if you can modify the mounting brackets there probably isnt any reason it shouldnt work.
