Rear bumper for hitch- crash rated

[VX KAT]

Thats hillarious Kat....I was JUST about to buy one of those.

been looking at it for about a month now.


only down side that I can read is it sounds like it needs a ratchet strap to put the superbumper into the receiver. I am assuming it would be a pain to swap that out for a clevis shackle on the side of the road.

Read the install instructions....

What! And you didn't share it with the rest of us???


j/k


were you looking at the "super" or the "spare"? Super has the trailer ball so you can still tow.

I hadn't considered using it as a recovery point, I'll read up on it and the install instructions.

Yeah, I probably should have brought it up....sorry folks...

I mentioned it to Tom when he was working to get me a hitch.

I was going to get the Superbumper but I also have a clevis shackle that goes into the hitch receiver. (for winter time recovery missions)

Figured our hitch would be a stronger spot than the tiedown on the right.

Went ahead and ordered this today -the one without the hitch ball....got Dave one too. I like the look of the Go Rhino way better, but can't deny I like the slight crash damage resistance this offers...may save the rear cladding one day. (Yeah, I know, ironic,..... from the person that intentionally drags her VX rear cladding and gas skid plate over rocks...)

It's cheapest at the mfg website $119 (superbumper.com), despite having to pay shipping. JCWhitney, carparts.com...were like $30-$50 higher. Couldn't find ANY discount/promo codes on line either for superbumper, so I just mentioned it in the "comments" section of order. Owner emailed me within an hour and said he was including 2 free hitch locks to offset shipping costs! Wohoo!!
