Those of us with the slick hitch cover don't have many commercial options available to us for installing our levels. I went to the local hardware store and bought the thickest sheet metal I felt I could bend. Painted it and then used the mounting bolts for the cover to secure it to the hitch.
Wine rack is next on the list.

I second that! That bracket looks better than the manufacturer's version.

It's just to bad that you're gonna lose all the "aerodynamics" of that hitch cover, NOT!!

Very nice! I have carried that same level with me for 3 years and never got it installed on my trailer. Maybe I'll get it done this season with the new trailer! Thanks for the inspiration.

Tom, wanted to say thanks for the idea. Mounted mine the same way last weekend and off on my first trip today to test it out. I think the only difference is I painted mine white to match the cover. The bending was a real pain but the end result was worth it.

Tom, Just took home our Bighorn 3670RL, and was looking for a way to mount the level, looks like I found a way. Thanks.
