I have a 98 jeep tj. It has the factory chrome tube bumper on the rear w/ a hitch. I am not sure of the towing ability of the factory hitch. I am looking to tow my 16' aluminum jon boat.
You need to bring it in to Toyota and have a real bed installed instead of that midget hauler you call a truck bed.
I hope they gave you a half off discount when you bought the truck.
