The larger one closest to the front of the vehicle, that's our 5/8 of an inch diameter hitch pin hole, secure hitch mount and accessories.

Because this being a class 5 hitch and capable of towing a lot of weight, you want to make sure that's reinforced so you don't have to worry about the hole becoming elongated as you're towing a heavy trailer.Closer to the rear we have our J pin stabilization device hole. What that does is take away the annoying shake, play and rattle at what's inserted in your receiver. You can pickup one of those separately on our website if you need to.On the end of our receiver we have this nice collar that's welded on to give us a nice finished look. more
