Ric, If you want something already built and bolt-in, check out the offerings from this source. Just something I found through a quick web search. wink

Ric, just some pics of what I did on my Burban. Went to Harbour Freight and bought a short 2" receiver tube. It has the raised ring around the outer edge and hole drilled for the pin. Got a good stout square tube (1/4" wall) to bolt between the frame rails. You can see the rest I think. Needed spacers to drop below the bumper and kick it out past the bumper. Braces welded on the sides. Not as hefty as I would have liked but I doubt I'll ever pull a trailer. Maybe a spare tire rack or one of those carrier baskets. Added the light plug in that I use on all my trailers and the led light for backup light also from HF.
