If you're talking about a REAR tube bumper for a 3rd generation, then keep me in the loop. I'd rather have a tube style to go with my front tube bumper and tube sliders. However, I still haven't seen one that I like.

It looks like you flipped the whole hitch upsidedown. Is this true? I was thinking of the same thing but have it poke thru the stock bumper. I would love to gain the 5" that the stock hitch takes. Mine would not work because the frame plates are too wide and the receiver is dropped under the main tube. What brand and model is your hitch? It looks like the bumper is as high as your frame rails now. I loke the concept of building off the hitch. I tow and need a certified hitch (or at least proven) Great job.
Do you want to make another one? I'm also very interested in the one BruceTS is talking about.
