so does the deuce have the same with frame too?
are you sure its 34 inch frame and not a 43 inch frame?
I believe these will fit on a deuce but from my reading and research they do not fit on 5 tons....but I could be wrong
these are 43 inch hitches (usually for Silverado 3500 frames)...
Cut a hole for the pintle hitch to come through and maybe a drop down ball hitch coming from this 2" hitch
I know they make one for a deuce but doth think curt has one that fits the 5 ton m923
I found a new heavy duty Curt receiver hitch that should fit the deuce perfectly. I like the fact that it has some drop height so that I won't need a drop hitch adapter as tall as without it.
It is Curt part # 15605 and has a gross towing weight rating of 18,000lb, and a tongue weight rating...
I put a Curt on my M923A1. But I used the 2" model.
Here is a thread where I got my info.

I had a pm asking about my tow rig and how it was set up.
The trailer is my buddy's 20' equipment trailer, 10K rating. 16' deck and 4' dovetail.
The deuce has the typical Curt 14082 hitch, with a straight pintle mount. This sits the trailer with a couple inches of down angle, perfect for...
Looking at the Curt site, it appears I would need to use one of the Class 5 hitches rated for commercial duty (18,000 lbs). They are the only ones with 2.5" hitch tubes. There are 7 hitches listed in that section and all appear to be for Ford, Chevy or Dodge pickups.
Is there a certain model...
i have a Curt 18k in my Duramax And i've told somewhere in the range of 24,000 pounts with it, they are pretty strong hitches. I had a Reese 15,000lb on there before and it saw similar loads, it didnt fail but it did bend that back of my frame channel slightly but i believe this was due to...
this is the one I just put on my deuce. fits perfect, drill six holes, mount and go!

there is a curt receiver hitch that will work on a deuce. before i went with wehring's hitch i was look at the curt and i think the price plus installation was less than $350.00. then you can rent a u-haul car dolly, unless you plan to haul your vet alot. with a receiver hitch you can haul any...
Larger one is actually cheaper.
Curt 15605 Class V Hitch IDC Heavy Duty Receiver
But I'm w/ you, seems to almost be overkill, and w/ the smaller one no adapter needed. Dimensions are slightly different on them though, even though they claim they fit the same model trucks.
every thing you need to know about towing with a duce
You have asked all the right questions and I can provide you will some of your ansers. First of yes you can pull a car with a deuce but your going to have to spend some money to do it. I spent a lot of time and money figureing out the best...
That is a Curt #15605 class V receiver hitch. 18,000lb capacity with 1,800lb tongue weight. You can reference this post to see some better photos about it:

Thanks for the link, but no-one in that thread mentioned the dimension that I am looking for... I'm wanting to put a hitch on a truck that has a pintle hitch that is sitting lower than one on a M35, so I need to make sure that the distance from the bottom of the frame to the top of the...
