Thanks! I like the "hidden hitch" setups that I've seen on this forum that are behind spring loaded license plates, but I didn't want to cut the old dealer bumper on the truck. I did try to tuck this hitch as close underneath and forward of the bumper as I could while still being able to bolt it to the bumper through existing holes.
You might want to look at Wrench-A-Part or Pull-A-Part yards near you for a hitch to modify. In Austin and Belton, they sell them for about $25 or $30. I was at the yard in Belton a couple weeks ago and saw a lot of hitches on 90's and 00's Chevy trucks that might be a good starting point.
(While there I pulled Jeep Cherokee rear wipers and door checks for my truck.)
