Pro Pride/Hensley, what do you do with the stinger

[Keith_Haw]

Just wondering what y'all do with the stinger when not in use. It sticks out to far to leave it mounted so was just wondering. Right now I just put mine in the truck.

Thanks

I welded a receiver to the trailer frame and store the hitch there.

Mounted a bumper hitch receiver to the Aframe of the trailer. I slip the stinger in there to store it.

Thanks for the ideas. Sorry I haven't replies sooner but don't get on line much while traveling, and we've been doing a lot lately.

You guys are bring back memories.As much as I loved my HA dealing with the stinger was a pain. I greased my stinger as well which did create a mess. Nevertheless I am a big believer in the HA hitch greasy stinger and all! :B

Mine goes in the back of my truck on the bed rug on the right side just inside the tailgate. It is not greasy so does not make any kind of mess on the rug, is out of the way, and does not slide around.

Bang yer knee on it?

I have a crew cab, usually raise the back seat up and put it under there.

Sometimes I will leave it in the receiver on the truck, but I have the truck backed up close enough to the TT that someone won't bust their shin on it.

Same here in the front compartment.

I pull it and stick it in the back of the van. It weighs only 20 lbs, so this is very easy - one of the major advantages over my old Equalizer.

Lock it up.

A steel recycling place will give anyone $0.35 a pound or about $10 for one, and it will cost $75+ to replace it.

Stowing it in the trailer is a good idea, and in a canvas bag is even better.
Thanks
