I was wondering what you guys are using for towing accessories? After I get my 1.9 F150 done I want to build a trailer or two. I'll use steel tubing but I'm trying to figure out how to make the receiver hitch and tongue on the trailer. I thought about making it a 5th wheel but I'm going to be using a lexan body (for now) and don't want to hack through the bed.

I'm leanving more towards making a receiver style hitch with a removable ball. Anyone else do this and have some pics?

The hitch is removable, I pull a pin on the back side and it slides out "thumbsup" and yes there is a ball on there, not that one, but a smaller that and I do use this to tow my whitebone trailer8)
