the F550 I got came with an AirSafe Hitch in it and I was wondering if anyone else uses this hitch? So far so good as far as ride and ease of hook up and release. I do notice that the bags leak over time and the paint is slowly chipping and I will need to repaint soon. haven't received much info or feedback from the company as far as replacement parts and equipment. I did have a broken shock mount but it was due to operator error. I had a lot of wood to take on one of our trips and one of the pieces inadvertently made its way to jam the shock and break the mount. Anyway, just checking for others that might have experience with this set up. Here are a few pics of mine....
