The Hopkins plug part # is 40955.  I bought mine at AutoZone.  Here is a link below showing the plug and the backing brace.  Used the brace as my template on the tape.   :wavey:

Thanks. I like the fact it has the 4flat plug built in also so no adapter is needed.

 Hmm....Let's seen now. AZ is a mile away, I have a two inch hole saw already. I can sit on a milk crate to do this so I won't be on my feet (foot is still in a walking boot), Prolly need a little longer bolt because of the cladding in which I can pick up at AZ........

WHERE IT REALLY IS ABOUT THE FRIENDS AND AVY'S, AND NOT THE ALMIGHTY ADVERTISING DOLLAR!

I'll expect pics up by COB today!!   :thumbup:  FYI  Just make sure that the back brace will be on the center/flat part of the bumper.  I ran the brace long ways, side to side.

Thanks FH!!  I wanted to move the plug to the bumper and didn't want to have the stock one showing and didn't want to cut it off.  You don't run across a deal that I got very often either!   :thumbsup:

Awesome, good deals are always a plus!!  I looked under mine the other day (when it wasn't snowing), I will probably cut the bracket off mine and repaint the receiver when I move mine to the bumper.  I want to replace the bumper before I move the plug, someone backed into me and bent the passenger side up a little.   banghead1
