Rear Bumper and Trailer Hitch - Infamous Nissan

Rebug · 01-21-2023, 03:52 AM

So I'm assembling the Reese trailer hitch and part of it has to be bolted to the bumper bracket. My truck didn't come with any bumper (base model). It came with a GMC bumper and they cut the rear of the bed to make it fit. Now I'm trying to figure out whether to see if I can just buy the bumper bracket or find the whole bumper that bolts on. Don't want to really mess with the frame and drill unnecessary holes other than what the hitch needs. Any recommendations?

You may be able to get rear bumper brackets from rockauto
