DESCRIPTION
Product Overview
- When you’re buried to the axles in mud, the last thing you want to question is your recovery point. The 70,000 lbs Hitch Receiver is forged from drop-forged steel and built for exactly that moment. With a 3/4" heavy-duty D-ring shackle featuring a 7/8" diameter pin, this receiver turns your truck’s hitch into a bombproof anchor point for snatch straps, kinetic ropes, and winch lines.
- The dual-position mounting holes let you run the D-ring horizontally or vertically depending on your recovery angle. The included 5/8" anti-theft lock pin keeps it secure on your truck when you’re not on the trail. Galvanized and powder coated inside and out, this receiver won’t rust after a weekend in the mud — rinse it off and it’s ready for the next recovery.
Key Features
- Drop-forged from high-strength steel and rated to 70,000 lbs — enough for the heaviest full-size trucks in the worst stuck scenarios. This is the recovery point you count on when everything else has failed.
- The shackle horizontally for straight-line pulls or vertically for angled recoveries. The dual pin holes give you flexibility that single-position receivers can’t match.
- Includes the shackle receiver, 3/4" heavy-duty D-ring with 7/8" pin, 5/8" anti-theft lock with keys, isolator pad, R-clip, and rubber washers. Everything you need to turn your receiver into a recovery point — no separate shackle purchase needed.
- Finish Two-layer corrosion protection: galvanization bonds to the steel, powder coat provides a hard outer shell. Built to handle mud, water, salt, and power washing without rusting.

FAQ
Q: Can I use this for on-road towing?
A: No. This is a recovery point, not a ball mount. It’s designed for off-road recovery with straps and shackles. For on-road towing, use one of our ball mounts or adjustable hitches.
Q: Which direction should I mount the D-ring — horizontal or vertical?
A: Horizontal for straight-line pulls directly behind the vehicle. Vertical when recovering at an angle or when the strap needs to clear the bumper. The dual-hole design lets you choose based on the recovery situation.
Q: Is 70,000 lbs overkill for my half-ton truck?
A: In recovery, higher ratings mean higher safety margins. Your truck might weigh 6,000 lbs, but a hard kinetic pull can generate forces well beyond that. A 70,000 lbs rating gives you a massive safety cushion — the receiver will never be the weak point.
Q: Will the powder coat scratch when I attach shackles?
A: The D-ring contact area will show wear over time — this is cosmetic and doesn’t affect strength. The galvanized layer underneath continues to protect against rust even if the powder coat wears through at contact points.
Q: Need a kinetic rope or soft shackle for your recovery kit?
A: Pair this receiver with our 1" x 30ft kinetic recovery rope for serious extraction power. For a safer, lighter alternative to metal shackles, grab our 1/2" synthetic soft shackles.

Verified buyerRunning between three rig sites every week, was burning through DEF in about 2 weeks. Getting 6 weeks per jug now. Regen lockouts used to cost me half a day in the field, that's done with.
Chris D.
Verified buyerGot four trucks on the ranch, did this one first to see how it'd go. Eight months in, no codes, pulls hay like she's new again. Other three are getting done before winter.
Travis M.
Verified buyerTowing the boat down to the Keys used to kill me at 11 mpg. Got 15.4 last trip, same boat, same route. Pipe looks stock from the outside, none of my buddies even noticed it's gone.
Mike R.
Verified buyerHauled my horses from Fort Worth up to Amarillo last month, got 17.8 empty on the way back. Was running around 13 before. Pulls a lot better up the grades too, didn't expect that part.
Jason T.
Verified buyerUsed to go into regen every 280 miles when I was loaded down, now I'm pushing 580 with no regen at all. EGTs run way cooler too pulling the skid steer. Wish I had done this sooner, honestly.
Brandon L.
Verified buyerBought it used and the previous guy had wiped the delete history clean. Got everything put back the right way, ran the protocol, passed smog first try. Truck finally drives like it should.

Fitment guaranteed or refundGot questions?
The stuff that keeps you up at night before you commit. Answered in plain talk by guys who actually wrench on these trucks.
A full mandrel-bent stainless DPF and CAT delete pipe, EGR block-off plates and gaskets, DEF delete components, all mounting hardware and clamps, and your preloaded tuner with the custom tune for your VIN. We don't ship anything you don't need, and we don't leave anything out that you do.
No. The custom tune disables the codes the deleted hardware would otherwise throw. Dash stays clean. If a real fault code pops up after install, call our line and a tech walks you through it. Usually it's a sensor that got unplugged during the wrench work, takes 5 minutes to sort out.
We pull your VIN before we ship. Engine, year, trim, cab config, all verified against the kit. If it doesn't fit your truck, you send it back and we either ship the right kit or refund you in full. Fitment is on us, not you. That's why we call it a fitment guarantee.
Most of our customers do. Average install is 2 to 4 hours with basic hand tools, sockets, ratchet, jack stands. You'll get the step-by-step install video emailed after purchase and a 24/7 phone line if you get stuck. If you can change your own oil, you can run our protocol.
Real custom files. Built in-house by guys who've been turning wrenches and writing tunes on Cummins, Duramax, and Powerstroke platforms for years. Every tune is dialed to your year, your engine, and how you actually drive the truck. No outsourced generic tunes pulled off a shared drive.
Once we've got the base files for your platform, dialing it in for your specific truck takes about 20 minutes. Charging $300 for that didn't sit right with us. We'd rather give you the better experience and earn the call when your buddy's truck needs help.
You call us. Real diesel techs, US-based, picking up the phone. We help with install troubleshooting, tune adjustments, fitment issues, codes, anything. We don't disappear after the sale, and the line doesn't go to voicemail. Phone number is at the bottom of every email and on every page of this site.
Yes. The custom tune is reversible, flash the stock file back through your tuner and the truck reads as factory again. The only thing that's permanent is the deleted hardware itself, but most buyers in the diesel community see a properly executed delete as a value-add, not a deduction. We can also ship the OEM-style reverse plates if you want to put the factory exhaust back on for resale.
Lifetime warranty on the stainless delete pipe, no rust-through, no cracks, ever. 2-year warranty on the EGR delete plates, gaskets, and hardware. If anything fails, we ship a replacement same day. The tuner itself carries the manufacturer warranty through EZ Lynk or HP Tuners.
Orders ship from Fort Worth within 1 to 2 business days. Free express shipping anywhere in the lower 48. Most orders land in 3 to 5 days. You'll get tracking the second it leaves the shop.
