Default Rampage Recovery Bumpers

I just purchased the Rampage Front and Rear recovery bumpers which look GREAT! The only trouble is that Rampage wants you to use their receiver that is not tow rated. I have a Hidden Hitch which is basically the same design as the factory receiver. The trouble is that the bumper mounts on the support where the receiver or the tow hook also mounts. Rampage told me that they heard that some people has modified "it" to work. I am not sure if "it" is their bumper or the receiver. If anyone is using this combination successfully, please reply. I will post photos after I get the bumpers Rino lined and mounted.
