Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2"
I use Curt Front Hitches from ETrailer with pintle hitch plates to make my own front protective bars and also rear protective bars in a rear truck, SUV. Or van hitch to protect my vehicles from bad drivers. Much stronger than bull bar or offroad front bumper bar protection
We live just south of Buffalo and Put this on our '11 Honda Ridgeline with a snowsport plow and a week later it snowed, and snowed and snowed... 5 feet in 24 hours and it's still snowing.... It's not good.... It's AWESOME! Not one driveway or even our street is clear... Except ours. It was easy to put together , easy to install and works exactly like it's advertised! It's November and it paid for itself already. Communication with etrailer was exceptional. We could not be happier with the whole setup.

Excellent instruction video! I would hope on future videos the dark black parts might be contrasted, they are taken from below and I am sure my lighting was lacking under an un-jacked jeep! The plastic rivets on vehicle are two part and in a restricted trough which were a pain to replace other than that issue everything was great!
Fits perfect and works just as I needed it to. I use it for my SnowSport plow set-up on a 2022 Gladiator Sport Max Tow. I’ve been using front receivers for this same plow for the last 24 years. It’s been used on 5 different trucks and this front receiver mount plow is the BEST. *** When installing on a Gladiator(possibly the Wrangler as well), the front plastic trim below the bumper needs to be cut for receiver clearance. I wanted a tight and “factory looking” install, so I took my time with a vibrating cutter and very sharp utility knife. After trying to put it back in place, the hole is not just square, it’s shaped more like. “T”. I suggest you make small adjustments/cuts as you go forward. It may take several times fitting and cutting to get it right and tight, but in the end it does look like it came that way from JEEP. On the Max Tow package, there is also a metal skid plate that does not get reinstalled. Unfortunately that piece is where the back of the plastic fascia mounts. I ended up securing it with some long heavy-duty zip-ties and it’s worked well for a year now. Just an FYI for those installing the same receiver on their same vehicle.

Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2"
For my 2005 Ram 2500 4WD. This product is well made and I am looking forward to using it for a winch that can go on the front or rear of my truck and may get carrying racks, etc. I believe the product I received was damaged in shipping. The span between the flanges that bolt to the sides of the truck frame was about an inch narrower than the distance to the outsides of the truck frame where the hitch fastens to the vehicle. One of the flanges was badly out of square. I widened the gap by placing the flange in a vise and pulling on the end of the hitch till it was closer to square. Then I used a large crescent wrench to tweak both sides till the dang thing would go on. Then I still had to use a pretty big hammer to wack it into place. Also, this installation was very difficult for me to do alone on the ground. A buddy and a lift would have made this much easier. The included fish wires were super effective and high quality; once the bolts are in place just thread the wire through the mounting holes in the hitch as you lift it into place. Went much easier than I expected. Instructions say use a hole saw, I used a step drill bit and that worked well, except for the small burns I got from hot chips raining down
Just like the description said and easy to install. Fast shipping and nice to ask questions before the sale.
