Default Best Hitch Cargo Carrier

Hello,

I'm looking to get a hitch hauler/carrier for my 98 Cherokee similar to this one: http://www.jcwhitney.com/hitch-haul-...63y1998z200j1#

I don't need anything too nice, but I don't want to end up with a piece of junk. Does anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks in advance,

-STM3

What are you going to use it for? There are cheaper ones that hold up good.

Steel.....

Aluminum... not cheaper but won't rust

Also check Northern Tool they have good sales on them from time to time.
I'm making a surf basket for my WJ out of the aluminum one due to the lack of rust.

Thanks. I think I do want aluminum to prevent rust. I'll probably use it to carry coolers, chairs, and other stuff like that when I go to the beach. 500lbs is more than enough.
Northern does have some good options. Thanks WJ Dave!
