I was the guy that started the GM hitch discussion after this happened:
Compare that to the aftermarket Kolussus:
I have not heard of aftermarket receivers causing frame damage. I can see where you might be tempted to overload an aftermarket hitch and create stress that the frame can't handle, but if you stay within OEM weight ratings, that gives you the advantage of a sturdier receiver and a safe frame.
BigToe, I forget how heavy your TT is....I am running about 1200 lbs of TW with my rig, which was the top limit of the OEM receiver rating. If you run lighter TWs then you will likely never have a problem with the OEM receiver, but many have reported that it's not up to the task of a heavy WD set up with 1000 lb bars.
