Hidden Hitch

I found a hidden hitch that fits a '99 Tahoe for sale. Anyone ever attach a late model hitch to one of our trucks. Just wondering how much work it would be...

Any Pics?

Blue4x4: with a fold-down license? what was the cost? Does he sell kits? I read a thread that showed how a guy did it but I can't find it now.

Long Roof: Why the ECE hitch?

I prefer things that are made for specific applications when they are available. These hidden hitches were made for the 67-72 trucks (and burbs) and I believe they also come with the plug in wiring harness for trailer lights. I have also heard good things about ECE.

I have a brand new one for sale for '99-03 GM trucks for sale in the 99+ parts forum. It was bolted up once, but never even driven with. I also have the steel rollpan and flip-down license plate that goes with it.

I've looked, but never seen one for our trucks.

I've dealt with Early Classic Enterprise for years, they've got most anything you'll need for your truck and are good folks.
