We had all the chrome re-plated several years back on the 7019 and laying out everything to get ready for assembly, I find that one of the hangars that is welded to the inside of the rear bumper for the hidden bolt is missing on the rear bumper.  The way the bumper brace mounts there is no way to mount it unless I drill through and use a bolt, which I don't want to do.  My braces are pretty much bent up also.
I can fabricate the mount but it would have to be welded on which will ruin the chrome and it will have to be re-plated again.  Let me know what you have and the price.
Mine also has an extra set of holes toward the bumper ends which I don't recognize a purpose for.  They look to be factory holes but I don't see a reason for them.
