Abstract: An adjustable hitch assembly 10 comprising a receiver unit 18 slidably engaged with connector arms 20 that are in turn slidably engaged with a vertical attachment post 26 by means of a coupler 22 to enable adjustment of the hitch assembly 10 in three dimensions. Readjustment is easily made by using fasteners to connect the components of the adjustable hitch assembly 10 together. Preformed hole patterns in the flanges 30 and in the arm 44 of the connector 20 accommodates standard hole patterns in vehicle frame rails and standard spacing of vehicle frame rails 14. With the present invention the adjustable hitch assembly 10 can be attached to most commercially available vehicles by the average vehicle owner, and later adjustment can be made to accommodate different configurations or heights of trailer tongues.
