Damn Floridians, 5mph rear tap, dented my chrome and barely missed the sensors. I have a 05' CC Titan 2wd with Big Tow (It has 3.36 gears, cooler, hitch, harness, etc).

My question is which bumper? I've been told there IS a difference between the towing and big towing bumpers. I'm looking on craigslist and found a regular towing bumper, will this work with the BT package?

My research got me here --->"This rear bumper assembly has the regular reinforcement bar assembled to the bumper. If you have tow package you will need to remove the rebar and install your factory hitch bar to keep the towing package." WTH does that mean???

I just want my chrome bumper, with sensors, and can still use my original BT package.

Please advise...

Pale Rider has a rear bumper for sale that he is trying to get rid of. It looks like its in really good condition...I don't know if he has had any bites yet and I bet he still has it. His is the integrated bumper/receiver newer bumper which should still work...I think he deleted his thread for the bumper sale, but couldn't hurt to ask


edit:
Also, i don't think there is any difference in the bumper/receiver on these trucks. The newer models have a receiver that is built into the bumper, which is much beefier...Not an expert on what is what, but my 2008.5 non tow package did not have an integrated receiver, it had a bolt on unit serperate from the bumper. My 2014 is also non tow package and has the receiver built into the bumper. No difference either way you go i don't think
Thanks for the mention danman!

I still have the chrome bumper with integrated hitch. but the man is in GA, that`s a 7 hr drive.
Might be worth it to save some coin. I would just to so I can chit chat and see your truck!
