Well finally bought it. Looked a little bit difrent then the pic. Was not that hard to install just took little over an hour. And rust penatraion really helped. Some of those bolts had lots of rust on them. Looks good and it also supports the bumper a little more.

I had a local steel place cut me all the parts for about $80. I just made them a cardboard template for the drop down part that attaches to the frame. I actually just sold the truck and gave the new owner the parts before I could weld it all up, so I don't have any pictures, but it would have looked similar to yours.

i used the hitch ball on the bumper on my 87 Ram 50 but now that the bumper is rotted out and needing replacement, i was thinking about deleting the rear bumper and putting a class III hitch behind the license plate with a flip up plate kit. the hitch that BlackThunder installed on his pickup looks like a light duty version of the 15,000 pound rated Curt hitch I put on my 72 Suburban C20.
