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 .

My 85 250sx has a 250es hitch on it. Fits it fine.

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.

both are the same, fit it in just fine with no issue

Thanks for the replies.

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 .

That is correct I did the ES just because its longer!!
