Has anyone added a bolt-on front receiver to their 3rd Gen 2500? I'm thinking of adding one so I can use my mobile winch on my truck as well as my Jeep, but would like to see one installed before I shell out the money for the receiver. I'm guessing there's a bit of plastic cutting that's necessary. Pics would be appreciated.

 

I put one on. It is a Hidden Hitch. It mounts to your bumper bolts and to the frame. You have to drill two holes in your frame which I found to be a lot easier than I thought using a hole bit. You do not need to cut any plastic.

Thanks for the pics. That looks like it hangs pretty low. Have you ever hung it up on anything?

 

I saw one in the JC Whitney catalog, I think it came through the bumper insert, not below it.

 

couple people make them You either have to cut a hole through the insert or remove it complelty... I think if I do one i will cut the whole and put a receiver mounted license plate holder in the front receiver so it is concealed when not in use.
