    Does anyone know if the hitch height of this bumper is the same height as the stock hitch? Very interested if it is.

    I think it is pretty close, but don't know for sure.

    i actually already PMd about pricing. :D

    even if it's a little off, I can adjust my tow ball and hitch. I tow a travel trailer in the summer and didn't want the compromise of adjusting heights. I guess it's not that bad.

    But I do want assurance that it's just as strong, and that the towing capabilites are not compromised. All I have read are posts about him saying that it's probably just as strong, if not stronger, but no qualitative info. Hmmmm

    I'm pretty sure all the metal on the ATO bumper is stronger than the stock hitch mount and it bolts into the same place. I'm still on the fence about that one or the high clearance

    I'm sure it's strong, but it doesn't have that extra "sleeve" around the hitch that the stock one has. I think that's what distinguishes it from being a class IV hitch and not a class III
