We successfully rebuilt three panel hitches using 3/4 inch plate and 1/2 inch material, incorporating new 60,000 lb hitches to enable substantial towing capacity. Our comprehensive refurbishment involved removing all existing cracks and compromised material, which was then replaced with new material. To meet manufacturer specifications, we drilled numerous holes with a mad drill to accommodate the fish plates and double plating, adhering strictly to procedure. This meticulous approach yielded satisfactory results for the DOT inspection. Additionally, we installed new panel hitches on four trailers. For one trailer, extensive repairs were required, involving cutting off the front section and rebuilding it. I am currently proceeding to drill new holes.
