I'm planning my future hitch upgrade along with moving the trailer connector through the bumper. I was going to follow suit and drill the hole for the trailer hook up and install plug there, which is common practice here.
After tossing around ideas, I remembered someone asked if the 2014-2015 Silverado/Sierra rear bumper would fit our trucks here: http://chevyavalanchefanclub.com/cafcna/index.php/topic,142736.0.html
^the thread got a little off track and turned into a hitch step picture sharing session.
Could this really be a simple bolt on rear bumper? The benefit to trying this is the 14-15 GM truck rear bumpers have parking sensor holes so I can transfer my original ones, trailer connector already through the bumper so I don't have to drill my old bumper, AND has the bumper steps again like the old AVs. I would also paint the chrome body color to give it a more original look.
Did anyone bite the bullet and try to fit the newer bumper on the 07-13 AV?
Thoughts?
Thanks!
