Are you asking about the trailer light connector? If so it will be in the same place as always. the factory bracket hangs below the bumper.

Just finished editing the install video, where you can see a little more of how it attaches and fits to the back of the Bronco. Hopefully this should clear up all the hitch questions.

Great job! I do like the incorporation of the receiver hitch into the bumper and the beefy bracketry. Any other options for lighting other than the BD?

Was skeptical on first impressions of the pics but after watching the install video, I really like this one. Unfortunately I already have one.

If I were starting over, I would have definitely gone this route.

Spent the day welding, sanding and painting, then got some better finished pics.

A little off topic...is the plate relocation bracket w/ light a Stinkbug product? Any info?

Well I just got a stock style hitch in, along with the wiring harness, and while the hitch fits just fine, that plug is massively bulky, and will require a little bit of a redesign to the notch in the bumper. At first I was unhappy about this, as I was trying to allow for a hitch with as little cutout as possible, but I actually think the new cutout compliments the lines of the bumper. The original plan was to supply a filler panel that bolts in and covers up the hitch cutout, but now I'm not sure it's necessary. I actually think it looks better with the wider notch, but you guys tell me what you think.

I like the design, but I feel like that bottom skirt section would look better black so it looks more like undercarriage. That’s just me though.
This was a solid suggestion. Thanks for the idea! I took it to the powder coater and it came out great
