Flat towing

Does anybody have a good idea on where to get a good tow bar at a very decent price.

We do not have the stock bumper any more.

How sturdy is that Warn bumper and how well it is mounted to the frame? If it is very solid, I would give some consideration to getting a towbar that bolts to the clevis mounts, even it means having one custom fabricated.

I have a Bulletproof Mfg front bumper and one of their towbars that does just this. Very solid and very convenient.

Otherwise, with that bumper you'll probably have to buy some "L" brackets, drill holes through the bumper, and use some similar brackets on the backside of the bumper to tie into the frame.

Being that i installed the bumper my self, it is very strudy it has 8 7/16" bolts going from the frame to the bumper and side brackets going from the bumper to the frame as well.

I've got a tow bar I'd sell if interested. The mounts are designed to be bolted to the bumper. Purchased but never actually used. I did paint the bumper mounts yellow though. If interested give me a pm
