1st Gen hitch

I am in the market for a class 4 or class 5 hitch. I have the chrome back bumper, with no drop, and i want one that the reciever is just under the bumper-i have seen ones that hang down. Anyone use a Curt hitch? It looks like a decent hitch

If it's got no hitch, you could start off right with a Kelderman air ride.

I vote the kelderman too, makes the ride nicer. However if you don't care about the ride, DMI makes a nice chrome bumper with spring loaded receiver in it. Yah it's going to be some$$$, but makes nice towing trailers, takes the yank out, and it also extends out and swings to make hookups real nice. Once hooked, just back up and the hitch locks in transport and away you go.

The 2 bag rear suspension conversion is also a 2" receiver hitch (class V I think).
