Lod rear bumper towing
Has anyone with the LOD rear bumper that has a 4" lift or more had problems towing? Did you have to use a huge drop hitch? I just got mine put on and compared to where the stock tow hitch was its a lot higher up and i was already using a 4" drop hitch!!

Yeah I have to get a custom one made. I have the Tera long arm and I bought a 10 inch drop and it's still like 6 inches too high. The thing is is that you lose some
Inches when the reciever is actually part of the bumper instead of being bolted under it.

Got the same problem. I have a little cheap Costco trailer and after putting on the 3 1/2" AEV Premium lift on, I now need something like a 16" drop, and they want a fortune for one.
