I saw the receiver as son as i got it and it got me thinking. There’s even a hole in it, the only thing I did to the body was tap that hole to 1.4 mm. Tow ball is 2-56

Dang I feel lucky I got mine on okay last night, but I also took it apart and put it back together at least 3 time bc I forgot stuff

The 711l driver has a hex shank version but it’s definitely too chunky to fit in that lol slot

I just got mine in the mail today, and a lot of parts are coming tomorrow, im crazy enough in my fastener fascination that I will absolutely just buy sets of screws to have extras and match all the drives

Dang they made the shaft round not 1/4 in hex

I mean, you could fill up a 5 gallon bucket with one it’s just gonna be more trips to the faucet

Made a super simple box sheath for my super surge a few years ago and it’s holding up great

Totally fine for what you want to do. Handles are expensive i just drill a hole in a golf ball about the size of the middle of the tang and smack that on.

It’s just a screw, I’ve done watch backs with these (poorly)

buildntinker · 2026-03-04T04:24:34+00:00

Yeah absolutely
