I am looking for the receiver hitch for my truck. Anyone have a cheaper source than OE.
Also what is this rated for
 
What is the OE hitch rated for? I won't be towing anything necessarily, but need something for a recovery point. Would this setup be suitable, or should something beefier be used?

The OE frame-mounted hitch with towing package is good for 6500lbs. I'm not sure about the little bolt-on one.
 
SSO lil hitch is 3000.
 
I wouldn't use a light duty rear beam hitch as a recovery point, I'd want something frame mounted.

Thanks. I had my doubts about that little bolt on deal. I'll have my fabricator friend make up something for me.
