Anyone know if you have one of these installed, can you still install a front mounted hitch receiver?

I was looking at front receivers, the both mount differently, But I think the guard will block access to the receiver.

I have the same one on my Dak, but its the chrome one. I like it a lot because it changes the whole look of the front of the truck. I got mine from a guy who bought it for his 2008 Dak, sold it to me for $300, granted I had to pay a guy at the shop to take a blow torch to the bolts in the frame so I could get them off and install the brush guard myself. If I can't get what I'm asking for when I sell my truck I'll probably sell mine for the same when I bought it.

I do know that once you install the brush guard you won't be able to have tow hooks in the front

I have not seen even 1 Dak here with a Push/Brush Guard on it, Ive seen 2 maybe with Bull Bars. So I cant find one used, Ive looked for the last year.

Correct, It mounts with the Tow hook bolts/Location.


Still waiting on mine to come in.
