¹ Concessions have been made for extra ground clearance and a sleek appearance and you will need to adjust your equipment accordingly. Depending on your setup this may mean longer drop hitches, wiring extensions, etc...
² Designed to support the loads of the factory tow capacity, but carries no SAE certification, nor is it designed to meet any DOT or FMCSA regulation.
We produce these products in a low volume compared to the OEMs or aftermarket receiver hitch companies. As such, it's not feasible for us to get this product tested against SAE J684 specifications or design it meet specific DOT or FMCSA regulations. So while we try to over-engineer our products with the loads of the factory vehicle capacity in mind; towing a trailer on public highways is at your own risk and we make no claims on the legality or viability of doing so. We cannot offer any recommendations on capacity beyond this. If the ratings of the factory receiver hitch are important to you, we would recommend choosing a bumper that keeps that in place.

Q Dan • 08/20/2022, 4:07:48 AM Has anyone found a receiver hitch?! Can’t find a single 8’’ drop with a stem long enough to reach the pin hole. This bumper design is impossible to accommodate, Bc the receiver has to clear the lip, most all drop hitches have a support rib on the back side. I can’t be the only person fighting this, pls help

Q kevin • 10/16/2022, 9:11:40 PM If I want to carry a motorcycle in the back bed can the swing holding the spare be in an "open" or "partially open" secure position with the tailgate down? Would ratchet straps or rope work or even be needed?
