    Looks pretty good! How sturdy is the receiver though? Have you towed with it yet?? I like the look of it, are they available w/o the receiver so I could use my stock receiver? and finally... How much are they asking for em?

    i havnt towed with it yet but i can say that the reciever looks just as stong as my factory hitch but i dont know on any ratings, and yes i know the eye bolts really want hold much and i never really pull anyting but our little motor cycle trailer maybe a few times a year and really just wanted a cheap way to hang the chains on there that looked ok, and they just make em with the reciever as far as i know, and as for the price it was 339 shipped to my door in bare metal

    It looks good but the bed side protection don't look like it would protect much if you dropped on to a rock. It looks like it would still be able to get up in there and hit the body.

    Yeah maybe it's just the angle it just didn't look like it protected the bed sides very well.

    JLee is worried about side protection ,and i don't think he even has sliders......
    But i do agree Trail-Gear has great products ,i have bought tons of item's from them..
    My last build..using mostly Trail-gear products.

    Now that you have the Trail-Gear on the rear ,you need the matching front ...I could drive up to NC. and take that ARB off tour hands.lol
