Does anyone have a recent experience with a receiver hitch that works with the factory step bumper and let’s you keep the spare in the factory location?
Try contacting U-Haul. They made one for my 72 K5 for $200 . A K5 is unique because it has the rear tank and 72 is unique because the frame ends are different so this is a one year 1 model only unique hitch. I thought it was a pretty good deal for a custom fab all welded not a universal bolted together.
