receiver hitch noise

This looks like a pretty cheap option. http://www.etrailer.com/tv-Review-Qu...tch-RM061.aspx

That looks like a good solution. I'd probably install it the other direction though, so it's pulling the ball end of the ball mount down instead of up - better than fighting gravity.

I was thinking the same thing.

I have a TUNDRA and made aluminum shims from a piece bent like an "L" Works great.

The farmer in me expressed itself by going to the shop and welding a light bead across the hitch. Then touching it up with the grinder until it fit back into the receiver.

A weld normally creates an inherent weak spot on either side so keep voltage low enough with just barely enough penetration to adhere. If you are concerned about reducing the strength of the hitch then weld it on the front of the hitch where there is no load bearing.

Snug as a bug in a rug.

I just ordered one of these. When it shows up I will let the WC crew know how it works....
