Yeah that's right $34.24!!! For a front Hitch Pin! But you need it or something similar in order to use your front hitch! I couldn't find anything but this pin from Hummer that would work. If anyone knows of something else please let me know. It needs to be long enough to go through the hole in the top of your front bumper, down through the top hole in the front hitch. Here is a picture of the hitch pin from Hummer part# 15059236

NJ http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_eek.gif,

This one is $55 CAN and it's made by BULLY.

I'm sure this is available in USA because I bought it from the dealership.

Do what I did. Build your own. Use a grade 5 bolt, weld a nut to the top and bottom. Attach a wire through the top so you can remove it and use the bottom nut to lock it!

I would post a picture but I sold it to Ric-H2 http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_wink.gif.

That's the same kind of hitch pin I use. I got mine thru Northern Tools, and I think It was about $20.

Thats just strange rich. It seems like just days ago that pin was in San Diego http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif.

Thanks for the pic though, it makes parting a little easier http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif.

I can send you monthly updates on how it's doing, along with pictures, and a brief history. It will only cost you pennies a day(about the cost of a cup of coffee!).
If you feel like hosting this hitch pin, and providing a better life for it, cash, check, or credit cards will be accepted! http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I use a regular hitch pin and drop it in from the top. To remove it I use a telescopic magnet to grab the top and pull it out. I have done this for over a year now.

This is the same locking hitch pin that comes with the Warn 9500TI winch made for the H2. I bought another Bully pin on Ebay a while back, but it was for about $12 from a different seller.

I have that same pin but it doesn't work if you are using a solid insert. http://www.elcova.com/infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
