Im interested too. That gap between the bumper and hitch is the number one thing I hate about a BL.

Performance Accessories makes a steel box to fill that gap. It's not the gap guards you can find on their website, so you might have to call them to get one. I helped a buddy put his body lift on and he doesnt have a hitch so that piece was extra. I'll ask him if he still has it.

That steel block is the ugliest part of the BL.

I modified mine, cut the cross tube off the mounting bracket and rewelded the cross tube about 2.5" higher.

I'll take a pic of it tomorrow.

Looking forward to the pic!

I forgot i made this thread haha. A pic would be great, are you a trade welder or something? I'm not sure id trust my self considering I'm either pulling a trailer full of toys or the business trailer behind me, I actually am starting welding school in november though. Looking forward to the picture, thanks man.

I don't weld for a living but I have been welding since high school, about 17 years now. Mostly a hobby but i also build stuff to sell. That's how I'm able to purchase most of my mods and toys.

Hitch looks good, need to fab up that exhaust next!

 

[thebassn8tr]

Wow! That looks great!

do you have a pic from underneath the truck i want to move mine up but the bracket for the relocation of the bumper would be in the way from moving the hitch receiver up did you make a custom bracket too?

I would love to see a pic of the modified tow hitch

This is the best i can do without removing the hitch. I should have taken pics before i installed it. This gives u an idea of how high the cross tube is on the bracket. Ended up cutting about 2" from the bottom of the bracket
