I was looking under my truck today and saw that it has like a reinforced type of bumper hitch. it looks like the design of a reciever hitch just it goes to the bumper instead. anyone know what the weight reating is for it? and is there an aftermarket upgrade to put on a reciever type?

 

That's actually a Class I hitch. I noticed it myself when I was looking at mine and that was one of the selling points for the truck. My father has an S-10 and the bumper ball on his is rated well below my Dakota.

 

I want to tow my 10ft trailer with 2 atv's on it will that take care of it for now? I plan to get a class 3 like all my other vehicles. anywhere I can buy one?

 

I got mine at a local U-Haul--they installed - lifetime warranty. I would reccommend it. Had them install a tranny cooler too. Class III.

how much did it cost?

 

$368, incl. hitch, ball and receiver, wiring, tranny cooler and lifetime warranty.

 

cool thanks.
