Doesn't appear to have any rust. Lots of old gell-like grease. I'll have to clean it up and inspect it. This is after spraying a little penetrating oil on it and wiping some gunk off.

Aftermarket Bolt-on hitch?

We have a Dodge Grand Caravan that we road trip in. I would like to put a hitch on it so we can bring our bike using a carrier.

Does anyone have a recommendation for brand names?
