    I had one of these on my 2006 Draw-Tite Front Mount Receiver Hitch.
    It was very functional but did not add to the look of the truck.
    Are there any attractive choices, or am I stuck with draw-tite or curt front hitchs.

    And what about the up front radar collision unit. ( I should just turn that off ).

    ( fyi i did search on here, not much actual data to see for front reciever )

    I'm considering the same thing. Mobtown has a nice unit that has the receiver and two recovery points. and its almost invisable

    @bfife I just installed my RCI rear bumper today. It has a flip up plate and hidden hitch.

    Thanks. Yes, Mobtown.

    My understanding is that the manufacturers of aftermarket steel or aluminum rear bumpers have not yet figured out how to get BSM to work with their bumpers. Try doing some searches. There's lots of information on TW. You just need to look for it. :thumbsup:

    None that I'm aware. Its to much of a liability to those companies since they're after market. I have bsm, but also have an RCI rear bumper. The protection outweighed the bsm. It was nice to have before the bumper, but I never trusted it fully any way so I still used my mirrors. It hurts a little at first to know you paid for something you can't use anymore, but it gets easier knowing that you can protect your rig from trail damage which, by the way, is why I now have a new bumper.
