After I bought my new to me truck I got a receiver hitch with it with a weird piece of pipe welded onto it. I asked the previous owner what it was for. He said oh he used it as a flag pole. I said oh now I need to make a flag pole and get a good flag. So I took it off, painted it to color match blue like my truck and now for the 4th of July Ive got a cool flag pole on my truck! It reminded me of your video last year!

Ive had a lot of these come into the shop. If smacking it for a few minutes doesnt do the trick, ill just turn it into a liquid with torches. If torches arent available, ill use a sawsall and cut flush with the hitch, then cut from the inside out and use an air hammer to remove whats inside the hitch in 4 pieces. Whats hilarious is i was talking to a friend about this just a few days ago. rofl. If you can, anchoring the vehicle to something (a large tree using front tow hooks) then using something like a come along on the hitch to another tree, just to provide some pulling pressure on it, while smashing the hell out of it with a hammer will help a lot.

I had a 95 GMC Suburban about 16 years ago. It too had a rust welded ball hitch in it like this. Clever me attached a tow strap and wrapped it around a concrete light pillar in a nearby parking lot. I attempted to pull it out using the truck. Well… Instead it ripped the rusted old hitch and that was that! 🤣. I tossed the broken part in the back and threw it out later. That ripped up hitch went to the next owner to figure out after I got rid of it. 😂

Yep I had the same problem with my truck when I first bought it.

burnout is highly approved

What you think about the 07 silverado 2500hd 4x4 ext cab long bed they any good
-
Gotta be an easier way. Maybe heat & lube+winch+air hammer?
-
I removed the receiver hitch and used a hydraulic press
-
They can ticket you for that in NJ? I don't really see who it's a hazard to, except the radiator or intercooler of the fool who rear-ends you, and they'd deserve it...... Anyway, nice job, although I don't know that you can really trust that receiver anymore, anyway. I think I'd have just removed THAT, and most likely that bumper, too. (Was this truck launching boats in saltwater, by chance?)
