Re: Any Hitch - recessed from bumper ?
Shovelhead,
I need the extra space to install a back up sensor into the hitch.
I am not worried about someone plowing me from behind. My concern is backing into a fire hydrant or another car.
If I was unlucky enough to back directly into a fire hydrant with the hitch, i think the hydrant will win.
Backing into another car with the hitch will do more damange than the bumper.
The hitch store salesman says that they do not know whether the hitch will be recessed from the bumper until it is installed. So if anyone out there already has draw-tite, reese or hidden hitch installed, please let me know if it is recessed from the bumper. I plan to install a back up sensor into the hitch, and hopefully, the back up sensor will be flush with the bumper.
The back up sensor will be movable to the trailer in the future or other vehicle.
