Can class 4 hitch be put on srt 10 truck, standard cab, manual tranny

[past ohio]

Thinking of buying SRT 10 truck, and want the standard cab type 2004/2005/2006, with the manual 6 speed tranny.....I notice that hitches only come on the quad cabs, can legally or safely put a hitch on this standard cab truck ?? Appreciate any/all info from this knowledgeable group.....I found a truck and the guy at the dealership said he would install a hitch on the truck....THANKS for the advice....

There was a thread on this already about aweek ago, you will destroy your clutch in no time, wansn't ment to pull. If the truck is still under warranty and the dealership sees the Hitch, they will for sure deny you any warranty work if it is drive train related. .02

you can put it on but your towing capcity is something very low in the 500-600 lb range if im remembering correct

I agree this will shoot your warranty.

However, if you could control yourself on your power application and avoid steep uphill takeoffs, I think that the clutch would work just fine. A clutch is designed to take engine torque, though in some applications that is limited by traction, pulling a load isn't any different to the clutch itself, however, the load DOES make it possible to inflict serious damage (by taking heat during engagement) to it if you were to operate the rig as if it had no load.

You have complete control over the power dumped INTO the clutch during engagement. That scares manufacturers. They'd need a wet, probably multidisk, clutch (like a motorcycle) to even THINK of warrantying that combination.
