Front Hitch Options

[Goose11]

Has anyone installed a front hitch? The curt and draw-tite options both seem like they hang down pretty low and limit ground clearance, but I haven't seen many installed on the 14th gens.

I'm curious as well - been thinking of either buying or making one.

I put a torque lift one on.it poked out just below bumper..in to the upper air dam
Orderd it on e trailer
I cut those ears off as well.
Made a smoother look

@powerboatr, it looks like you trimmed the active air dam for the front hitch. Does the active air dam still work this way?

Also, would this hitch work well in your opinion as I look at the height of it for a winch cradle?

I have a tight driveway and yard to park my boat and you have me thinking this could make it easier.

The deplorable part is removed
Hang it in your garage
The reciever pokes through the no moving part of air dam
As far as clearance
If you scrape the air dam. It will touch
I used a draw bar that was a 6 inch lift..so it put trailer ball right at center of bumper..
Workd like a charm

I use one of these to pull my camper up my driveway. Works great.

Yeah, I've thought about one of those. Sometimes I unhook it from the F150 and hook it on my Land Cruiser because it's so much easier to park.
