What size hitch?

[sharpshooter73]

Does anyone know what size hitch (1 1/2", 2") is standard on my '02 XLS?

do you not have a tape measure?....they came with both from the factory depending on what tow package you have

Not in the truck with me. I was going to stop at a parts store on the way home from work tonight and get a hitch cover/plug. I don't like it being open/exposed. Visually it looks like the inside diameter is 2". Would that be correct?

The truck didn't come with an upgraded tow package. Whatever the "standard" hitch is they put on them.

the first 2 are the smaller 1" reciever, and the rest are the 2" reciever

If it didn't have the tow package, it is the 1 1/4". The 2" only came with the tow package (along with the 7-pin plug).

I hope you can tell the diff between 1.25" and 2" by looking at it.

Standard size is 1-1/4" with the 4-pin connector. It's what I have on my truck since i don't have the tow package.

lol.. it's easy to spot the difference between a 1 1/4 and a 2".. it's like an apple and an orange.
