Default Hitch mounted animal skinning post.

I had this fabbed up a few months back to mount to the back of my truck for skinning and quartering deer. Ended up going a different route that can stay on my hunting property without me having to haul it around every time I want to go hunting.

It is just shy of 5.5 feet in height (fits in a 5.5 ft bed with tailgate up). It is made of 11guage square tube steel... So yes it will support more weight than you can throw at it. The height of it when mounted will vary depending on how low or high your tow hitch is, If your hitch is 18" off the ground, add 5.5 ft to that and you come up with 7feet tall.

It has a solid steel 18" hitch bar (curt brand) that attaches it to the back of the truck. The hitch bar is firmly seated inside of the tube, I had to pound the damn thing in with a BFH.

I have close to $200 into this thing. First person with $100 cash gets to take it home. Local pickup only in Garland Tx. (East Dallas)

PM me for fastest response, I do not check the forums on a daily basis.

I also have a stock chrome front bumper off of a 2013 if anybody wants it, I'll let it go cheap.

Pics.

I know they are. I had it welded together by a local muffler shop. I didn't care about it looking pretty. I just wanted it to be functional. It does work as intended, I've used it to harvest 2 deer this season.
