ABSTRACT:
A hitch for a vehicular tow trailer which can be rigidly yet removably attached to a sleeve has a shaft which slides into the sleeve and locks with a pin in a conventional manner. The shaft is divided into two sections that are separated by parallel planes that are inclined to the direction the shaft is inserted in the sleeve. The sections are connected by a bolt which traverses the inclined planes threading into one section while being operable from the outside of the other. Tightening of the bolt causes the sections to slide to opposite sides of the sleeve, wedging the shaft within the sleeve and eliminating play between the shaft and sleeve.
