Hey guys my rapid hitch is getting very sloppy it rattles around you can tell the aluminum is getting stressed and my friend is trying to get me to buy the b&w(says they're stronger) Which one do you guys prefer? pros/cons of both of them. Thanks Tom

You already have the turn over ball, so the companion just drops in. I have one and I like it. I had to modify the rails slightly because of my fuel tank. But there is no slop, it's easy release, & positive lock.

....and I'm not sure what a rapid hitch is???

But mine is new so I can't vouch for longevity.

Love my Tow & Stow. Very solid with no slop at all. Just make sure to keep the pins lubed or they are a real pain to get in and out (tolerances are really tight). I would definitely buy another one.

I have both hitches. They are both great hitchs. The rapid hitch does have more slop and movement the the b&w hitch. Like said before keep the pins nice and lubed because they do get gummed up and tight fitting over time. The B&W is what I would recommend.
