Where to get a D035 hitch
« on: November 03, 2014, 05:21:45 PM »
Ok, so I'm looking to get a D035 V2 (2 of them actually).

I know they are made (and sold) by Vehicle Components, but does anyone know of any one else that sells / stocks them.

It seems a few trailer manufactures will offer it as an option on their trailer at a cheaper price than VC sell them for retail ?, but the only retailer I can seem to find is VC themselves ?

Or do I just suck it up and pay what VC are asking ?

Phone a few camper trailer manufacturers and see what they sell them for individually and then call VC to see if they will price match.

Just a bit of banter Spada. Nothing to be worried about.
