Most Popular 350 lbs Vert Load for 2022 Ford Expedition

I use Curt Front Hitches from ETrailer with pintle hitch plates to make my own front protective bars and also rear protective bars in a rear truck, SUV. Or van hitch to protect my vehicles from bad drivers. Much stronger than bull bar or offroad front bumper bar protection

We live just south of Buffalo and Put this on our '11 Honda Ridgeline with a snowsport plow and a week later it snowed, and snowed and snowed... 5 feet in 24 hours and it's still snowing.... It's not good.... It's AWESOME! Not one driveway or even our street is clear... Except ours. It was easy to put together , easy to install and works exactly like it's advertised! It's November and it paid for itself already. Communication with etrailer was exceptional. We could not be happier with the whole setup.

A good install! A bit of trimming for my application , but the bolt holes lined up perfectly. This front hitch was not specifically for a Lexus GX 460 but I decided to try it. There is a small area of lower bumper plastic that had to be trimmed. The hitch was pushing up against it before it was high enough to be in place. Upon trimming that area, it went in perfectly. If trimming the lower plastic is not for you, probably best to pass. However for my use, it works well. It is a stout piece, very strong. I added a pic with a red line to show where the trim needs to be.

Installed on my 2012 Lexus GX460. Perfect fit once I cut the center section of the lower plastic area for it to fit. Also had to trim the bottom splash guard and bend in the L brackets that hold it on. Took me about 2 hours. Very happy with the outcome. Now can mount snow blade for the driveway clearing…or any other hitch items.

This worked well for what I needed it to do on my 1955 Willys Wagon 4x4. I installed on the frame with body off. I extended the frame approx 9” and welded the hitch to the front of the frame. The goal was to use it as a base to drop down a winch plate with the idea of the winch cable being accessible from the bottom of the stock bumper. The hitch fit the width of the Willys frame perfectly with just a little trimming so as to be away from the front suspension hanger over by slightly over an inch. I then bought a badlands universal winch plate from Harbor freight and trimmed and welled to the frame extension and hitch. Super sturdy, with the added bonus of dropping a future winch lower so as to improve air flow and cooling to the engine. Still have to drill holes and mount front stock bumper and check clearances but appears this will work as I get the vehicle back to together well see how it turns out.

We installed a front mount trailer hitch receiever on "grandpa's" truck for his Snowsport Utility Plow and it works GREAT! It's been a year and we expect it to last far past the life of the vehicle!
