Is there any particular reason the aluminum one uses the factory receiver and the steel one integrates it into the bumper itself in a higher position?

Why are the trailer cable outlets so high?

Nice, I'll probably get the aluminum to match my Patriot front

Above the rear crossmember for ease of install.

Can't make a tow rated aluminum receiver/bumper. Next natural question is just use a steel receiver and an aluminum bumper, but steel can't be welded to aluminum.

looks like the spare has to be relocated very high without the spare drop on the bumper... goodbye rear view or am I missing something here

While I like the bumper this pic shows your rear view is essentially gone with the spare moves up. Too bad. I wish they had kept a notch for the spare so the rear window remained usable.
