When winter snows start piling up or the Rubicon Trail begins calling your name, will your rig be ready for action? Equip the snout of your truck, SUV or van with the Draw Tite Front Hitch Receiver. It creates a sturdy, secure and safe mounting point for your snow plow and winch. Even add a hitch step to reach deep into your engine compartment without climbing up a ladder.

Best of all, your Draw Tite Front Receiver is custom-built to fit right to your rig's frame. And, it comes pre-drilled to accept a locking J-Pin. That way, thieves can't walk off with your expensive equipment, and sway is held at bay. On top of that, it's backed by Draw Tite's Lifetime Warranty.

The hitch bolted right on to my 06 GMC 2500HD. It allows retention of both tow hooks. The plastic valance does deflect up far enough that you do not have to cut it, so I did not. In the event I remove the hitch, I will not be left with a notched piece of trim. I've generally been satisfied with Draw-Tite quality...

The receiver went in easily, took a mere 15 minutes to install, although I did need to modify it to fit my 96 Explorer. There are none that fit directlyto my vehicle. I used 2 1.5" spacers on the front bolt holes and used my frame bender to widen the rear arms to the frame width, and upgraded to grade 8 bolts. I was suprised by the speed and cost of shipping. Works great!

Reviewed by Davion H (Columbus, OH) 2000 Chevy Silverado — Jul 21, 2010 5:27 AM
I mounted this on my 2000 Silverado, 2WD with front tow hooks. The two front mounting holes for the receiver frame were shared with the tow hooks. It took quite a bit of wrestling under the truck to get one bolt through the receiver, but once it was in I was able to align the other hole and then tighten the receiver against the frame to start drilling. Drilling was a pain in the rear but once it was done, I had to undo one front bolt to slip the extended threaded "tab" (I don't know how else to describe it) into the frame rail to align with the hole. Once that was done, I had a new feature installed on the truck. I used this for a winch with a cradle mount (both bought from here) and pulled some trees out of a gully. Good strong product, fit just fine under my bumper and air dam. It eliminates a bit of ground clearance but offers many more utility options.

It only took me about 30 minutes to complete the install (including reading the directions). Only had to swap out four bolts and did not have to cut the air dam at all. Carried three bikes and did not notice any increase in engine temps.

This is a very well built, high quality receiver. The fit was perfect on my Ford F-250 Super Duty. The only difficult part of installation was drilling 4 extra holes, but all in all, it only took me about 2 hrs working alone. I like the concealed look and sturdiness. Great product.

The hitch bolted right on. I had to trim the front air dam 1/4 inch but it was no gig deal. The hitch is used for a receiver hitch mount bike rack.

It was exactly what I was looking for. Paint was chipped but not a very big deal. Nice quality welds.
