We made and sold jewelry all weekend long, so no truck work. Today I started making the trailer hitch/rear bumper/rear bed mount.
I trimmed about an inch off of the frame rails to make room for my 2 by 4 inch - 3/16 wall box tubing. I'll mount the 4 inch receiver tube to the bottom of this, extending forward about 10 inches to catch the next frame crossmember. Also I will weld some bumper mounts off the new frame tubing.
