I have no clue just how original my rear "bumper," as seen in this photo,
is, but it does have a trailer hitch.
So - it's been done. Unfortunately, I have no idea how. If this is not
original, my guess is that it was done by the Arizona Dept. of Agriculture
(the PO of my truck), just like the fender-mount spare and the unisom
seat. Let me know if you wish me to conduct a further inquiry into the
subject.
