I have a 1985 Bronco II and bought a Reese Hitch off a guy that took it off his 1988 Bronco II. This is so I can throw my carryall in it for hunting gear, coolers, etc.
Looks like I'm going to have to drill a couple of holes to mount it up to the chassis; any good ideas out there or any other info I need.
My step bumper has a long piece of steel across the bottom that I'll have to drill through as well (I've put on 3 hitches before on different vehicles); I would have thought at least 1 or 2 sets of holes would be pre-drilled but on this BII I'm going to have to drill all 3 sets.
I'm also not so sure that this thing is going to sit up as high as most of my hitches; it's not real low but most of the hitches I've put on have been relatively "hidden".
