Default Rugged Ridge

I bought the Rugged Ridge one from Oconee Offroad. They had the best price a couple of months ago.

Avoid the Curt hitch. Mine was on less than a year and all the powdercoat sloughed off in huge sheets.

I'll second the Rugged Ridge model. Looks identical to the factory hitch for around $55.00. I don't think I even paid for shipping. Installed in minutes.
