Hitch Recommendation for a 2000 Ford Ranger
Question:
My truck, listed above, has only about 3 1/4 inch distance underneath the step part of the bumper to bolt on to. There are no holes drilled through the bumper, there is a rubber pad installed. Do you have something that will fit? Thanks.

Expert Reply:
Yes, check out the Draw-Tite part # 75082. This is a custom fit hitch designed specifically to fit your 2000 Ford Ranger 4x4 that would do an excellent job.
Check out the installation instructions I attached for this hitch.
