Does anyone have the hardware to attach the hitch?
This is all I have

 
All you need is some bolts.:D If your ready to put it on take your bumper cover off and see what lengths you need and run to the hardware store.;)

I believe the 2 top bolts need to be a carriage head.

working on the motivation. Only had the hitch for 2 years now :D

I wasn't sure if I needed the ones with the tabs that you have to fish inside the frame. Did that on an old car.. it sucked.

Yep, they have to be fished down there. I done it on my first truck about 9 years ago and haven't done it since:rofl:
 
Any tips on getting the bumper cover off?
 
The pictures above look like a bumper bolt on, these type hitches are only good for about 1000 pounds, the hitch Dodge Dealer put on my truck fits all across the bottom and bolts out for Class 3 type...if you are going to do towing make sure it is rated for what you will be towing etc... my $.02
 
As stated before, the trucks already have the support underneath. This isn't just attaching to a bumper. Many have used this hitch, myself included without any issues.
This is a class III hitch

You have to remove the cladding from behind both tires and the black plastic pieces on the top (be careful with those) There is also some small pieces of velcro on the ends of the bumper cover that stick to the side cladding.

Yea that's what I figured. I have new plastic tabs for the top of the bumper already.
 
As stated earlier, be very careful removing the side cladding pieces as you can easily scratch the bed side during removal. It is a very quick removal overall.
 
yea the tape is definitely coming out for this one.
