Hey Mike! When you say you have the tow package option I'm assuming you have the factory hitch. None of the hitches will fit your Tundra as is since the factory hitch is tied into the rear bumper and bumper brackets. You will have to replace the bumper from another Tundra without the factory hitch to be able to install one like the Curt # 13184.

What do you typically tow with your truck?
