| I will be selling my old boat and will need to transport it. I Will use my jeep for towing and I will do it instead of hiring a tow third-party. I just ordered https://www.jeepsareus.com/sku/82212180ad.html a tow receiver but would I also need to change my back bumper since the boat is too heavy? Would love to have feedback from 4x4 owners. |

Fret question.. what is the boat you are pulling? Getting an idea of what the thing weighs will be a part of the decision on what route to go.
