I used to tow with "Junior" my first AD truck, a 1950 half ton.  I just put a 
stout piece of angle iron between the two inner bumper brackets right behind 
the bumper.  I bolted another angle iron to that to hold the ball.  The 
heaviest thing I towed with that was"Senior", a 1950 one ton which was a very 
slow, dangerous trip.  When senior was together, I towed with that for years 
until I put together my 54 one ton wrecker which I currently use for towing.
