Recently I towed a trailer with my Maverick. There was so much clunking I wondered if the trailer had come loose. On inspection I found that my standard 2 inch hitch was actually about 1.99 inches, which is about 10 thousandths undersize, while the Ford receiver is 2.070 inches, or 70 thousandths oversize. Altogether that makes 0.080 of slop. I've never had a hitch fit so loosely. I spent over an hour spot welding the sides and top of my hitch and grinding them to fit. Has anyone else had this issue? Is there a simpler solution I'm not thinking of? Thanks. Ken
