Thanks for the write up, I'm ordering one next week, especially since now I know all I have to do is put the rubber thing in the female end and whack it...
Any thoughts of putting something on the top side of the plate like Line-X or some other coating to dull the sound bounce-back? I read about a few people using roll on bedliner, various epoxy solutions, or even spraying flex-seal on the top side to take a little of off the sound.
Great upgrade.
