You need the bracket shown in the picture for either end of the bumper. The tow hitch on the Tremor has welded on tow hooks and welded hangars for exhaust supports. The pics should help you. One is a Tremor and the other is an XLT.

You are the man!!! Thank you.....this does help a lot. I don't need the Tremor hitch since my aftermarket exhaust has its own hangers. I just need to get the P/N's for the brackets and I should be good to go. Thanks a lot for taking the time to do this.

Just curious if you were able to get the part numbers for the brackets required and if you completed the mod ?

I have the end caps painted and ready to be swapped out, but I have not had the time to take apart the bumper and see if they can bolt up to the brackets or if I will need to order the brackets, too. I took a day off from work to install the leveling kit and do the bumper end caps on the same day, but the leveling kit install on this truck was such a nightmarish task, that we ran out of time and didn't get to it. I will try again this month. I fully intended on coming back to this thread and posting the end results.

Looks like they will mount up but i would order the brackets for the additional structural support.

Once I get in there, I'll able to determine if it needs or not. Since they are special order parts, they can't be returned so I don't want to end up getting stuck with them. I don't remember how much they were when I asked, but they cost almost as much as the bumper end caps themselves which I thought was ridiculous. If I see that they aren't sturdy, I can always order them and swap them out later. The end cap removal is straight forward and not labor intensive.
