Front Hitch?

Anyone have a front tow hitch? I can't seem to find one online.

I was going to put one on so I can attach a spare tire mount to it during trail driving. My buddy has one for his Silverado and its a great place...

TC on here has one, but its on his custom bumper. Pretty sure there isn't a simple bolt on type, like for the rear, and that no matter what you'd need a custom job.

Are you looking for something integrated with a bumper, or just simply the hitch part?

Wow, that would totally work. How the heck do I buy it?!

Yeah, I would assume making a front tire carrier would be semi-easy to build. In fact, I have a friend who could probably weld it up if I came to him with the metal.

As for looking over the 35" tire... yeah. ;/

4buy4.com has the best prices on warn products, and performanceoffroadcenter.com claims to have the best too... get them in a bidding war

Just get a new, tube/sheet metal bumper with a winch mount built in. Alot of different compaines make the,.

You not only get a way beter bumper-but you can mount your tire with some fab work and make a winch work up there too (warn portable).
