  • What is the Difference Between the Towable and Non-Towable Bumper on a 2002 Toyota Tundra
  • The difference between a 2000 Toyota Tundra with a towable bumper and a non-towable bumper is that the model with the towable bumper will have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball wheres the model with the non-towable bumper will not have a cutout in the center of the bumper for a hitch ball. The trailer hitch receiver I recommend for your Tundra is the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 13184 because it will fit models both with the towable bumper and models with the...

  • Will Curt Trailer Hitch C11367 Deform the Bumper Fascia of 2015 BMW 435i
  • You are correct that when the Curt Trailer Hitch Receiver Class I # C11367 is installed, it will move the steel bumper closer to the bumper fascia by the width of the mounting bracket. However, this will not negatively impact or deform the bumper fascia. If installing the hitch caused problems at the bumper fascia, the manufacturer would state that the hitch requires trimming of the bumper fascia or they would not list the hitch as a fit for the vehicle. The # C11367 requires no trimming...

  • Cargo Carrier Recommendation For A Keystone Outback With A Recessed Bumper
  • Since you have a recessed bumper on your Keystone Outback, instead of using the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99049 I recommend going with the: -24x40 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99050. This cargo carrier will work better for a recessed bumper since it mounts to the side of the bumper rather than the top of the bumper.

  • Will Curt Bumper Brackets Fit Any Bumper?
  • The Curt Bumper Brackets # C19748 are a universal fit so you do not have to have a special type of bumper. All that is required is a flat metal section of your vehicle's bumper to install the brackets. You can then tow it with Curt tow bar # C19745. I've added a link to a video review of the brackets for you to take a look at.

  • Can Swagman Bumper Mount Adapter Mount Underneath Bumper
  • I spoke with my contact at Swagman and was informed that the RV 2 inch Receiver Bumper Mount Adapter, # S64025, cannot be mounted underneath of the bumper because the bolts included with the receiver are not designed to handle the tongue weight required of it in that position. One option we have for mounting a receiver under the bumper of your camper is the RV Bumper 2 inch Trailer Hitch Receiver, # E-100. However, you cannot exceed the limits of your camper bumper. The bumper towing...

  • Class V Trailer Hitch for 1972 Ford F250 with Barden Bumper
  • I am unfamiliar with the Barden Bumper and in my research, I could not find any specific information regarding the Barden Bumper. Our trailer hitches are not tested with aftermarket bumpers. We have two bumpers that have been determined to be a fit for your truck with a factory bumper. The # BWHDRH25122 is for standard and step bumpers and the # BWHDRH25198 is for deep drop bumpers. I recommend measuring from your frame to the bottom of your bumper to know how much distance you will need...

  • Are The Support Brackets Needed For A Trailer That Has Its Bumper Welded To The Frame?
  • Since your bumper is welded to the frame, it should be very strong and likely won't need to use the support brackets # MO34VR for the 24x60 etrailer Cargo Carrier for RV Bumper # e99049. However, you'll want to verify that the load you're planning on carrying isn't going to overload your bumper. Bumper capacities will vary from each manufacturer, and I recommend contacting the manufacturer for your bumpers maximum weight capacity to ensure you aren't going to overload your bumper. If...

  • Can I Mount Swagman RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack # S80500 to Square Bumper on 2010 Puma Travel Trailer
  • The item you selected, Swagman RV Bumper 2 Bike Rack # S80501, is designed to attach to a 4 to 4-1/2 inch continuous welded square steel bumper like the bumper on your 2010 Puma travel trailer. It is not designed to attach to C-channel bumpers. You will want to check the owners manual of your Puma travel trailer for load carrying capacities of the camper and the rear bumper.

  • Can a Trailer Hitch be Installed on a 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 with Ranch Hand Bumper Installed
  • If the ranch hand bumper is the same thing as a cowboy bumper or deep drop bumper then none of the hitches for the 2006 Dodge Ram 2500 are confirmed to fit because they are not tested on truck models with alternate bumpers. You would have to put the old bumper back on. If the factory hitch is the one welded to the frame then you would need # C15809 if you did install the factory bumper. This hitch fits below the factory hitch. I have linked instructions and a video showing installation...

  • What is a Deep Drop Bumper? How Do I Know If I Have One?
  • A deep drop bumper is also known as a cowboy bumper. It is taller than a regular bumper, and would use a receiver that is lower than what would be used on the same vehicle that was equipped with a standard bumper. If you click on the provided link, you can see our Bumper FAQ article that will explain it in full. If your 1999 Ford F series has the cowboy bumper, the # C15316 would work great for you. If you have the standard bumper, # C14355 would be a better choice. This hitch will only...

  • Difference Between Curt RV Bumper Hitches 19101 and 19100
  • The difference between the two hitches is the size bumper they are designed to fit. The 19100 # E-100 is designed to fit a 4 inch square bumper and the # C19101 on the other hand is designed to fit a 2 inch by 4 inch bumper instead. Basically you'd need to measure the dimensions of your bumper to know which you would need. Most likely it's a 4 inch square bumper though as that is the most common size.

  • Recommended Base Plate Adapters for 2015 Jeep Wrangler Sport with Winch Bumper
  • For your 2015 Jeep Wrangler Sport with winch bumper you do not need to remove your bumper, but you will need to utilize the D-rings of your bumper to use a tow bar. Make sure your bumper manufacturer confirms compatibility flat towing with their bumper. You will either need the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts - 3/4" Thick # RM-035 or the Adapter for Jeep D-Ring Bumper Mounts - 1" Thick # RM-035-1. Either of these adapter will work well with the Roadmaster Falcon 2 Tow Bar # RM-520...

  • Length of Universal Diamondstep Rear Bumpers
  • There are no diamondstep rear bumpers that I can give you which will fit your 2004 Chevy Silverado, as they are universal bumpers for older model trucks and none are designed with your '04 Silverado in mind. What I can do, if you do not want to use a custom-fit bumper, is give you the widths of the universal bumpers so you can see if any match up to the width of the bumper on your truck, but I can't guarantee a fit. - Westin Fey Diamondstep Rear Bumper # 66000: 61-1/2" - Westin Fey Diamondstep...

  • How to Identify What Bumper Type My 2001 Dodge Ram 3500 DRW Has to Correctly Select a Trailer Hitch
  • A roll pan bumper is a style of bumper that that will make the back of your tailgate seamlessly flow down your vehicle and give the appearance of flatness. With a roll pan bumper there is no step like a traditional bumper you see on many trucks going down the road. If you would like to send me a picture of the back of your truck I can confirm if it is a roll pan style or not for you. I have linked an image of what a deep drop bumper will look like as well as a standard step bumper for...

  • Rear Bumper for a 2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500
  • I do have a rear bumper you can use on your 2003 Dodge Ram Van 1500 but we do not carry any OEM parts. You would need to contact your local dealer's parts department in order to obtain an OEM bumper. However, you can use the Westin Fey Surestep Rear Bumper part # 76001 which is the bumper you referenced and very similar to the one in the attached photo with the Installation Kit for Westin Surestep Bumpers part # 92230. The bumper brackets will be an exact match for the bumper but you will...

  • Does the Curt Hitch C15398 Support the Bumper on a 2013 Toyota Tundra?
  • That is correct. There is nothing to support the bumper when you install the Curt Hitch item # C15398 on a 2013 Toyota Tundra. That hitch was designed for the trucks without the factory hitch so there's no reason for it to have built in support for the bumper. It'll work on the Tundra's that came with a factory hitch so long as you get everything out of the way including the factory hitch's bumper support. It is not necessary to support the bumper with an aftermarket hitch like the Curt...
