Front tow removed

[Robayochum]

I removed the front tow bracket that the previous owner had installed. I believe something OEM needs to be reinstalled?

Pictures? Where was the bracket bolted to?

What gladiator do you have?

2020 sport, it was towed behind a RV by the previous owner. I removed the tow bracket, and appears something oem needs to be reinstalled

Yup. Looks like it.

What bumper do you have? Do you have a picture of the area where you think something is missing?

Why do you believe that?
Have you not looked at the many thousands of photos on the web or on these forums to compare your Gladiator to others out there?
(be sure to compare like to like only because many pictures out there are NOT stock Jeeps!)

You've asked why you hurt without any further explanation as to where you hurt.
We don't know exactly what you removed (there are many tow bracket possibilities out there - we don't know which you had) or why you believe something is now missing.

I would guess bellypan/skid plate. Most of the ones I looked at required removal of these to be reinstalled later after modifications to them. Maybe the PO didn't put that back on. I went with the Rockhard bumper since it has brackets to hook my towbar to so I haven't installed one of these on mine.

Hey bro, might want to change your location… I don’t think everyone needs to know your address.

Unless you want fellow "Jeepers" coming to your house to offer their opinion, I would change your profile.

As noted by others there are a lot of possible answers depending on what bracket you have.
One way to figure out what stock parts were removed is to find the installation instructions for whatever brand tow bracket you took off. If you read through the installation instructions you should be able to easily identify what stock Jeep parts were removed or changed. They are no doubt available online wherever that tow bracket is sold.
