This is what my Mom's fiancee hitch install looks like, I told him to get one off a truck instead of a blazer. You can guess which one he got. He has 5 grade 6 bolts on each side of the rails holding it, and he welded the hitch to the original bumper brackets. Now that he can't use the truck bumper hes going to make a bumper out of c channel. I'm no fabricator by all means but I bet I could do a better job. He claims that he's a certified professional welder and could get a job anytime.

For your amusement here is a picture.

With quality welding like that, I can imagine a man saying "grade 6 bolts." :rolleyes::waytogo::whistle::surepal:

He bought it and immediately came to me for answers.

Yes I meant grade 5 my bad. His camping rig is something special, a 18 foot dual axle flatbed trailer with a cab over camper sitting in between the axles.

I've actually seen quite a few of those setups around here. Poor man's toy hauler. Camper takes up part of the trailer leaving the rest for atv's and such. I still think it looks retarded, of course some folks probably say that of my rattlecan paint job on my truck.:D
 
Yeah they built one on Xtreem 4x4 a while back. Theres came out pretty nice.
