Rear bumper questions
 

I have a 1990 silverado short bed I am going to fix up, I am going to replace the rear bumper with a roll pan bumper.

Question
Will I have to remove the trailer hitch in order to use the roll pan bumper or will there be clearance for it?

Should I remove the hitch to access the rear bumper bolts?

I am not having much luck finding a diagram or anything showing locations for the rear bumper bolts, any help on this please.

Before someone wants to flame me, Yes I can get under and check it out myself but wanted to see if anyone has advice on this before I start tearing into it, just want to make it an easy removal.
The front bumper and grille were very simple and I am hoping the rear won't be bad either.

Thanks!!

Depends on the hitch...some stick out more than others. Sorry, but you are just going to have to get under there and find out.
Personally, I would remove everything just to clean it all up, then see what you can re-install with the pan in place.

Yeah I believe I will just go ahead and remove everything like you said, makes sense to get it all cleaned up and out of the way to make it all easier,
Wish me luck

Thanks!!
