    So I got hit wile stopped in traffic on Tuesday about 5/10 mhp by a jeta. The trailer hitch took most of the blow and just tweaked the bumper. Car that hit me mostly went under the hitch. I'm looking for the parts list for the hitch and bummer. The frame looks fine, I think it my have bent the hitch. How soft are the hitch bars?

    My old Tahoe got hit in the same place and bent the hitch but think is was a much harder blow. I was not in the car for that one.

    My truck is no where near that bad. bumper has not even bent in to the paint. I have no time to fix it my self this time. "just bad timing" I would like not to have AAA get cheap on me and find out after i get it home the new bumper is off set by a bent hitch. Some of the small bolts that hold the plastics on snapped off. "rust and bump"
