Body lift done, now what about the hitch?

[Gavinstuckey]

:frusty::frusty:I have recently installed a 1.5 inch body lift to my 2000 4runner. I had to take off the stock hitch because it was an eyesore. Now my question is, r there hitches on the market that will look good on the 4runr, or maybe like a bigger hitch that protects the bumper, or any custom hitch that is available, also thinking of a new rear bumper but I don’t have the money yet, any cheaper rear custom bumpers? Looking for all options containing custom rear hitches or bumpers! Thank you in advance.:frusty:

I know what you mean! I have a 1.5" BL and this the view.

Tried flipping the receiver but it doesn't matter. Still has the gap.

Good excuse for a new bumper!!

Do what I did on my thread (http://www.toyota-4runner.org/3rd-gen-t4rs/163299-infamousrnrs-2002-limited-bu-ld-thread-8.html)

I cut it & welded it 1.5” higher....

I don’t plan on towing anything... just a bike rack, but this resolved the gap that occurs after a body lift.
