    Are the 250 big red trailer hitches the same as 250 sx hitches?

    Im thinking about getting on off a 250 big red and put on my sx. Its in good shape with no rust. I heard some people say they fit but the big red one is longer...True or false? Thanks

    Went and looked at mine . The bolt pattern between to two looks to be the same . Lower shock mounting is different and a cut out is provided in the ES hitch while the SX has a solid top on it . I would guess that the ES hitch would bolt up to the SX , but not the other way around .

    The es hitch bolts up fine, but is a tad longer, and does have a slightly different downward angle to it as compared to an sx hitch.

    They are not the same . The Es will fit the SX , the SX will not fit the ES due to the location of the lower shock mount on the ES .
