I have a Husky 16K slider hitch & I can't seem to find a good hitch cover that covers more than just the top plate. Any suggestions on where to look? I used google but didn't find what I was looking for. TIA

One is very easy to make. A couple yards of good clothback vinyl and a few minutes of sewing. Make a model with an old sheet first to get it right before you cut the vinyl.

Bar-b-q cover works pretty well, also. Shop around for size.

I use an old black vinyl RV trailer tire protective cover. Works great and has the bungie cord built in already. Use another one to protect my Trail-Aire pin while it's parked.

I use a Lund Genesis roll up bed cover I bought for the sole purpose of covering the hitch. Just roll it open for towing and when disconnected roll it closed. Also handy for hauling stuff you don't want to get wet.
