Reviews for Rugged Ridge 11580.52 Receiver Hitch with Wiring Harness & Jeep Logo Plug for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
The hitch fits well but would be easier to install if the nuts were welded on. We got it done without removing the bumper but it's tedious.
Took a few weeks but showed up. You don’t have to take off bumper to put on you just need patience, a good light, a needle nose, vise grips and time. Took about 45 minutes for complete install.
Finally got a hitch, was waiting for a Versa Hitch but it’s been on preorder now for months but they keep getting ones for plastic bumpers I guess people with steel bumpers are just out of luck. Oh well this hitch looks super nice and it’s in stock.
Easy to install works good
Easy install and works great!

So after watching a video and looking at the printed instructions I started the install. After about 15 minutes of battling with the washer and nut I started staring at the 6 bolts that hold the bumper in place; removed the 6 bolts and rocked the bumper far enough to get the washer and nut on without any issues. Had I thought of that from the start it would have been a 30 minute install which includes securing the bumper again.
