94009 looks like it might be it.

Thanks for the leads guy's I will look into them.

The make of the hitch is homemade, which means no buying another one :)

It was in the bed when I bought the truck off ebay two years ago, and if the channel under the bed that goes between the frame rails wasn't welded on so damn good I would just removed the bed, grind it off, and bought a B&W.

there is a picture of it installed in the bed here: http://www.bigbaddodge.com/BBDII-towrigs.html

thanks again guy's

I found a 94009 Putnam on the shelf so I took a picture of it. Might work but it is different. 3 1/4" shank length and they don't go clear up to the top. The base is a little smaller too.

Thanks for posting the pic that shows a lot I was looking at that one

Can't see how far up the threads go on this one either, they might be very similar.

I tried everything in town here with negative results.

Thanks again,
