    Recovery Receiver (not advertised for towing) and recessed light mounts

    I'm well aware. Translation: it costs a tremendous amount of money time and effort to get it rated and approved, and he would be dumb to advertise it for that Without that.

    FWIW The owner if the truck you posted says he tows his boat with that bumper.

    I have towed with mine no problem. If anyone it's stronger then a hitch.

    But like he said, Tim can't say it is rated for anything due to insurance issues and cost of getting it rated.

    Sorry if I missed it, but how are you guys mounting your license plates? I'm finally putting mine on and it didn't come with the receiver mount after all. No magnets for me. I had a magnetic holder on the front and lost the plate within 3 weeks. Can't have that happen on the back.

    Also, what plate lighting are you using and how are you mounting it?

    I got a piece if aluminum size of the license plate, but up top in the center left room for a license plate light. Led light off if a trailer. Like 7 bucks from a trailer store. Then that aluminum plate is mounted on hinges to fold up and allow access to the hitch. Sits a little low as it would hit tailgate otherwise when folded up.

    I have the one and only one Tim has done. Plus I added my own touches.

    Was an expensive option and I know it was a lot of extra work for him. He told me he didn't think he would offer the option or do it again...but...I have no idea.

    Money talks. Be prepared to cough up a lot extra but can't hurt to ask..

    If Tim were to make more rear setups with swingouts, I think I would get one. I really like yours a lot.
