Does anyone have part numbers for the hardware used to attach Raptor hitch braces to the hitch/frame? Assuming something like 4 bolts and 2 c nuts.

II am adding them to my BD in a couple weeks after I switch to a Borla exhaust that puts the muffler ahead of the rear axle (opening the former muffler location for the braces). I already have the raptor hitch installed and the braces are sitting in a box ready to go.

For reference, this is the braces I'm retiring to.

I would assume you could just go to the hardware store and grab some grade 8 hardware.

Likely yes, but nothing official. My understanding is the primary difference with the Raptor vs Regular is the braces and additional cooling, I think for the transmission. The receiver is also a little thicker.

Good stuff, so the Raptor receiver is different. Would you happen to have the part # for that also. I tow a max capacity off grid camper and already had the tow crossmember replaced due to a rear end collision. The repair looks great but I would like to increase the strength of the crossmember. Thanks.

Keep in mind you will need to move the muffler to put these in. I have a Borla cat back I'm also installing that moves the muffler ahead of the rear axle.

I'm trying to figure out what the extra cooling component is, but no luck so far.

Thanks, I looked at that, the one side may clear the pipe but the other one would defiantly hit the muffler. When they replaced my receiver after the rear end collision, I think they may have installed the Raptor receiver because it's threaded for the braces and I don't remember it being that way but I could be mistaken.
