Ok this is for anyone whos put there OEM hitch on... As you know last yr this time I was rearended with the truck. Well all has been fixed and looks great, but after having it a year it seems like the bumper and hitch are tilted towards the rear. It just catches my eyes wrong... My question for you guys is, does the hitch/bumber assembly have slotted holes where I can readjust this? Both are tilted the exact same which leads me to think they are, or they both were installed incorrectly. I havent crawled under the truck to actually look yet, figured I would ask you all, and if all else fails crawl under there myself. I have briefly looked at the brackets in the manual but I cant see where they are slotted and there are not notes of whether they are slotted or not... Let me know Thx

 

OOOOOK, since no one could answer this I went ahead and did it all by myself, yes that makes me a "big boy" if you want to be a smart ***. Well the bolt holes are not slotted, BUT, they are enlarged a bit which allowed the adjustment I was seeking. All I used was a 13/16 socket w/ratchet, a floor jack and some muscle. The bolts weren't frozen at all. Surprisingly they were not as tight as I expected. I loosened the bolts up, jacked the jack and put it to the extreme range that the whole assembly could make, which is where it looked correct and level. I then tightened the bolts to a much tighter torque than what they were at originally. Next time someone asks, now you know. So all is good in the neighborhood...

 

Me thinks it was more like "WORKING ON HIS BACK" again!

 

HAHA, nice one guys!
