    Yeah that's what I figured. Plus, if I spend a ton of money on some good dirt tires, I don't want to be wasting them on the street. I'm sure your weren't cheap either!!

    Thanks man!! The hitch is hidden behind the license plate. And I can confidently say that it's much stronger then the stock one! Since having the bumper I've towed a 4Runner, a small boat, and a trailer with 3 bikes.

    Any pics of your rear view camera relocate Chris? I'm interested in getting a Pelfreybilt H/C with swingout in 2 or 3 years but I don't want to lose my rear view camera ability.

    Did you have to extend the wiring from the OEM camera? and do you just have a hole in the tailgate handle where it was? I guess I'm just asking for general details, I have no idea how you relocate it.

    Yeah I just spliced into the camera wiring and extended it a couple feet I think it was. Four wires total. Then just used some shrink tubing and a nice cable cover so it blends into the bumper better. Right now there is just a hole in the tailgate handle but I have some black plastic that I just need to cut to size to fill it. I just haven't gotten around to it cause its barely noticeable. It was super easy to do. The hard part is aligning it so that you can still trust the green and red lines.
