Custom Hide A Hitch...

[avlamonte]

Hello everyone. With the decreased departure angle provided by the trailer hitch, I am wanting to gain a little clearance. I just ordered the Rock Hard rear bumper which is made of 1/4" steel. Should be strong enough to absorb some pretty decent hits...with the wrap around and beefed up brackets on the sides. My thought is to have my fab guy create a custom hitch that hides behind a fold down (or removeable...magnets?) license plate. The hitch could also be welded to the back side of the bumper to strengthen the whole set-up. Anyone have any experience with this...I figure I can't be the first to think of it. Anyway, let me know what you think and if you have any suggestions. Oh....and I will be carrying my spare in the bed...just in case anyone is wondering.

Thanks much,
Allan

Interested in hiding one up front too!

Looks like JCR is doing this. Not sure what they are doing for a relocated hitch receiver....inquiring minds want to know...not sure if it will be welded to the bumper or not.
