Recently swapped hitches.
I have my reasons.
Was surprised to see how deformed the washers were on the no-name Amazon hitch. Picture of 2 washers.
Installed Curt. Thought the washers looked odd and was paying attention since the no-name hitch washers were warped. Backed off from 75 ft lbs. Picture of 4 washers.
Got new washers from the bin and torqued to 110. No deformation with new washers. New washers are 1/4" thick.
Maybe the no-name and Curt washers are supposed to be one...
No-name hitch switched to Curt hitch observations
