Bolt Size for hitch coupler?
by byrdz1 » Tue Apr 14, 2015 12:03 pm
Do any of you know what size bolts I need for a two inch hitch coupler? I bought a new one and am going to put it on tonight, but I forgot to see how big the bolts are, and I would like to stop on the way home, so if any of you know off the top of your head it would be a big help. I am looking for the bolts that attach the coupler to the trailer tongue.

I just measured mine at 1/2" x 4".
Depending on the width of your draw bar you may need steel shims.
If available go with grade 5 or 8 nuts and bolts.
