Boy, do I have some ideas sometimes. Since you loose your towpoints when you fit a brushguard I was kinda lost, I wanted a Westin style brushguard because it looks good, but then the towhooks?
Some A bars let you have both but not the Westin, the mount plates use the towhook bolt holes.
So I got a 'Hidden Hitch' front hitch to solve that problem. But..that doesn't fit. Darn. The hitch is wider then the brush guard mounts.
Anybody know why there's a bolt in the middle of the hitch? I welded the thing together, seems like a weak point. First I thought it may be there to take it apart and fit it without taking of the front bumper but that doesn't work because the support plate bolts go in the chassis and so you need to take of the bumper anyway.
Since UPS lost one of my brushguard mount plates I had to fab one up
and so I did this:
