This is a 2\" hitch, D-Ring Shackle. It is heavy, and solid. It ships in a cardboard box that has a foam insert. It is well protected in its box. This one comes with a hitch basic pin, that is held by a spring pin. This is not a locking pin, but I am ok with it because I would not lave this on the truck. I would only use if for emergency recovery. The Item I received, although it was well packaged, had a large paint chip. This did not happen in the foam box, therefore they must have shipped it in the factory, but they did not take any effort to touch it up. The shipping box is well packed, but they do not supply a box for your truck. This is too heavy to be sliding around in the back. They should supply a hard zipper case.
