    It's kinda hard to see in this pic (google) but the oem hitch bolts on will at least 2 horizontal bolts (like yours but full holes, not slots like the bumper brackets) and 1 vertical bolt through the hole in the bottom of the frame just below the rear bed bolt.

    It's hard to explain without taking my own pic to edit.

    Edit: This is the vertical bolt I was talking about.

    Yes, 2 bolts each side , that"s it to hold bumper and OEM hintch, i wish to add those re- enforcement frame brackets one day when money grow on trees... but no yet. Someone said our frames are weak rear end and seems is true in case you want a bumper with full size tire holder and gas etc... forgot what the brand is for those expensive ones but nice set up

    Anyone weld the bumper brackets to the frame after securing the 4 bolts? I've always been a little sketched out by just the two bolts on each side. The 2nd gen I use to have had 5 bolts per side and a locating pin, seems way more stout for pulling/winching/extra weight on the rear/etc.

    Mock up one is in lol. I'm digging it. Gonna look so dope when done! I ended up getting M8-1.25 x 16mm black allen bolts, zinc nuts and basic washers for mine. Started spraying eveything w gloss black paint about 3hrs ago. Just finished them and gonna let bake in the AZ sun all day while I'm at wk tomorrow. Thanks FERNANDO for letting me steal your idea! Haha

    Got the "plugs" bolted into the fender holes today. Looks freaking awesome. I highly recommend anyone that wants to remove their flares and fill the holes do this. Honestly it looks way better in person. Pics don't do justice.
    It was a kind of a pain but I didn't have to fully remove any plastic gaurds under the fenders. Prolly worked better for me cuz I dont have huge hands either lol. @Fernando Thx again for the info you gave me about this idea

    Specs on mine? If so they're 32's with 16x8.5 MB razors. Would love to upgrade to 285s in the future though.

    @Ak4T777 this discount you speak of from Toytec... I'm considering doing 2.5" or 3" on my DC this spring/summer. Maybe some of you guys can give me advice
