gas tank skid and trailor hitch ??

[AZRockRunner]

So, I finally got a gas skid and also a trailor hitch. Does it matter if the hitch mounts 1st then the gas tank skid or the other way around? I would think the hitch would mount and then the skid but I DUNNO!!!!!!!!

Anyone got both? how does it mount.

Thanks

When I put my gas tank skid on the 94 I had to remove my hitch assembly to do the install. Can't remember why exactly but I do remember doing it that way. :patriot:

If its the skid row gas tank skid install the skid then the hitch. Here is a link to the install.

I WISH it was a skid row skid. It is a factory skid, which is better than nothing. I might weld on some 3/16" strips or something but who knows.

Thanks for all the help guys

Hitch then skid.

Better bearing surface from hitch to fram than hitch to skid to frame.
