Re: Hidden Hitch for 73-87's?

what about pulling one of those hitches from the junk yard and cut it to fit between the frame rails wont that work too? I think this is a good idea cause i hate the way the hitches look hanging under the bumper specially on a lowered truck.

That is what I did. Fits nicely behind the license plate on the roll pan. It has been TESTED and works fine.

Re: Hidden Hitch for 73-87's?

Found this video of a nice setup. Unfortunately the person who uploaded it is not the owner. Maybe the owner is a member here? I would be happy with a hitch setup like this and a rollpan.

1:16-1:20 gives a good view
