53 spinner pintle hitch

[macibell111]

I have a 53 and someone tried to pull it out of the mud and bent the rear crossmember and the pintle hitch bracket,(replaced the rear crossmember and gas tank crossmember.) ,a machinest friend put it in a press and fixed it (the Pintle),so I am cleaning it up and putting it back on.I see a lot of talk about the 360 degree pintle ,I wont be towing anything but it is nice to have and a good conversation topic.IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT IT FEEL FREE TO ASK THANKS jACK
