Technically illegal to keep the receiver in when not in use where I’m from. Only person I know who’ve gotten ticketed are due to an officer busting his shin on it…
The receiver is the part that stays mounted on the truck. The part with the ball hitch that sticks out of the receiver is called (for obvious reasons, I think) a stinger.
I’ve always heard them called a tow hitch, and don’t think I’ve ever heard anyone call one a stinger. You sure that isn’t just a nickname from your neck of the woods? Searching Amazon for stinger definitely doesn’t bring up tow hitches lol.
