Hidden hitch
 

Does anyone make a tow hitch that is low profile and is hidden behind the license plate box for the square c10s? I'm goint to run a sport bumper and dont want it to stick out

I don't know of a marketed/direct fit for 73-87's but there are options that work...

I have the hidden hitch here for my 72, but I never bothered to see how it might work on my 79 (it already has a hitch). I'm sure it would take some fab work though.
I couldn't hide one on the 79 anyway as it has the spare tire crank and lock already behind the license plate so there is no room for a hitch up there, so I just never looked at this as an option. Interesting though.

I bet it would. Depending on the position you may have to use a longer receiver. Thanks for the info!

Pretty proud of it. Damn.

$250?? Seems about right. That's in the ballpark of what I paid for a class IV hitch.

However my only complaint would be the 5,000 lbs. tow rating they give it,,,that's pretty damn weak. I hope they are talking about tongue weight :lol: Otherwise that's a useless hitch in my opinion.

That's what I mean...that receiver is only a Class 3. Regular class 3's go for less than half that all day, everyday.

Personally, I don't mind having a receiver hanging under the bumper. It’s not like the old days when they were big ol nasty hunks of steel hanging out there. Most of the newer models are relatively low profile.

I like my big ole nasty hunk of steel,,,, Big old square tube class IV sucker, I feel sorry for anyone that runs into the back of my truck :lol:

You should see it with the load distribution hitch sticking out of it :lol:

Some of the more recent stuff in the last few years however I see is made out of round tube and while may be more appealing to some, doesn't really matter to me, my truck is just a truck ;)
