68 imperial hitch

Bob, when I purchased my 68 Lebaron it came with a class IV hitch welded to the two

unibody channels on either side of the gas tank. It was welded in four places, two on

each side, with 1/4 inch thick steel vertical hanger plates. The original owner towed an

airstream with it. Since then, I have had to cut the hitch off because the gas tank had

to be removed for rust cleanout.

Subject: IML: 68 imperial hitch

Hi All.

I am going to a car show out of town this month and I want to carry my bikes.

Here is my question will the rear frame hold a square type hitch recover I have a bike rack that goes in the receiver that I want to use.

At wall-mart they have uvaversial hitch that I want to mount on the car I think it is a class 3 hitch.

I am going to drill holes thru the frame to mount it and I just want to make sure the frame will hold it.

Thank you far any help on this.
