Default Trailer hitch recommendations?

Guys - I know I could make something perfect, but time is not on my side. I need a hitch for my CC, but I have a 'saftey' rear seat on the cart, so there is the floorboard in the way. CPP has a nice one for $49 and I think I can just use a 12" extension - that should work. Steve's has one that looks super duty for $79. Also saw it for $61 at cart stuff depot.
Ron - I didn't see anything on your site, but I know you must have something up your sleave.....

Any thoughts?

my company sells one that mounts to the foot board of the seat kit, its about $50... you just drill 4 holes in it, and mount..

I am not one to steer people away from Cart Parts Plus at all, but I think the one from Steve's is a little heavier and I like it because it mounts to the actual frame. I'm sure either would be fine, but you'll have to decide which one you want based on what you're pulling.

My foot board is plastic - and I am inclined to go with the frame mount too - who knows what I'll try to pull with it....

You'll be surprised what they will pull. You will also be surprised what they won't stop.

The idea is to pull a 4x8 utility trailer, wood stake sides, with hay bales around the neighborhood on Halloween. (obviously with trick or treaters)

ive seen one golf car pull about 5 other golf cars around at one time... a gas car weighs 6 or 7 hundred pounds... so I would guess that pulling that trailer should be no problem.. ... not to mention I have a customer that pulls around airplanes with his gas club car... (although small planes)

Wow phasetim, you're lucky. The carts I work on can barely pull themselves. Except the Club Cars, they use those to tow the lesser carts around.

I do have a machined driven clutch, power spring, and heavy duty rear leaf springs so I think I'm well suited for towing....
