Hidden Cross Tube for a Clean, Factory Look

The EcoHitch Hidden front-mount trailer hitch is designed to be as inconspicuous as possible. The hitch's cross tube bolts onto your vehicle's frame. No drilling or welding is required. Once the hitch is installed, only the receiver will be visible. This means that your vehicle can maintain its stylish, from-the-factory look, and you won't have to do any major modifications to its body or frame.


Eco-Friendly Material

With a combination of aerospace-grade aluminum, steel, and stainless steel, each EcoHitch is made of a strong metal alloy that will withstand the test of time. The lightweight alloy is composed of recycled materials. Traditional steel hitch manufacturing can use coal or oil, which can contribute to harmful gas emissions. The EcoHitch's recycled materials limit the carbon footprint during manufacturing, so you get a sturdy trailer hitch while also helping the environment.


Rigorous Strength Testing Ensures Durability

This EcoHitch trailer hitch is tested for durability and sturdiness. Using Finite Elemental Analysis (FEA), individual points of stress on the hitch can be detected and remedied. Designers can accurately test the hitch to ensure that it will meet or exceed SAE J684 standards. The EcoHitch Hidden trailer hitch is carefully researched and strength tested for a durable, high-quality hitch that can resist damage while on the road.

Very good hitch. Installed by body shop. I did not have the necessary tools. Ford puts some of the bolts in a difficult position to get to easily. When completed it looks very good.

It works great. We were in an accident when a truck and trailer sideswiped us. Of course the bike and rack were destroyed. The tow truck operator used the front mounted hitch as connection point to remove our motorhome from the crash. He thought it was an excellent product and felt it prevented further damage to the motorhome.

Great front hitch for our van. Used it to have our bikes on the front during trip to Alaska with no issues.

Love the hitch but it was a tough install! Took 2 people 8 hours to install! Completely removed the front of van! Directions were not the greatest but we managed to get the job done.

  • Front Hitch that Fits 2019 Ford Transit T350 Coachman RV
    Hey Steven, we have a front hitch that fits your 2020 Coachman built on a 2019 Ford Transit T350 chassis with the EcoHitch part # EH79CR which would work great for you but neither of the part numbers you mentioned would work.

  • Recommended Front Hitch for a 2023 Ford Transit T250 Eco-Boost
    Hey Richard. The EcoHitch Hidden Front Hitch item # EH79CR will definitely support a 542 lbs motorcycle. It has a 1,000 lbs total capacity no matter how you use it. Unless you have the lightest motorcycle carrier ever, it's not going to work with your Harley. The EcoHitch item # EH79CR is confirmed to fit the 2023 Ford Transit T250 Eco-Boost model. What kind of carrier do you have and what kind of motorcycle is your 542 lbs one? You can add this information, along with any other questions...

  • What Front Hitch will Work with My 2021 Ford Transit T350 AWD ECOBOOST V6 Gas with Skid Plate?
    Hello Robert, Let’s get you set up with a front hitch that works with your configuration. Since your Transit has the EcoBoost engine, the # EH69CR unfortunately will not be compatible. The correct fit for your 2021 Ford Transit 350 HD High Roof Crew AWD with the 3.5L EcoBoost V6 Gas engine would be the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH79CR. I reached out to Torklift (the manufacturer of EcoHitch), and they confirmed that as long as your skid plate is factory, this...

  • Front Hitch that Fits 2022 Wonder RV Built on a Transit Chassis

  • Will EcoHitch Hidden Front Hitch Interfere With Adaptive Cruise Control
    Hey John! The tech note we have is that the EcoHitch # EH79CR "may" interfere with the adaptive cruise control. The placement of those sensors isn't always perfect so it is possible it could pick up the hitch. I would expect it to not interfere as EcoHitch said, that would be the norm. Of course, if you have a bike rack or other accessories mounted on the front those would likely get picked up by the sensors. Are you planning to use the front receiver strictly for recovery, or do you...

  • Install Instructions for EcoHitch Front Hitch on a 2025 For Transit T150
    Thanks for reaching out Ocean, I apologize but there isn't a PDF available for the EcoHitch # EH79CR install instructions. I checked the manufacturers website to find there wasn't an option for a digital copy. If you would like to reply back with any questions about the install, I would be happy to help. What do you plan on using the front receiver hitch for?

  • Does the EcoHitch Hidden Front Trailer Hitch EH79CR Fit the 2024 Ford Transit 150?
    No, I am sorry it will not. The EcoHitch Hidden Front Trailer Hitch item # EH79CR stopped fitting the Ford Transit 150s after the 2023 model years. I do not have a custom fit front hitch for a 2024 Ford Transit 150. The only solution I have is to use the Combo Bar 12" item # E-11 and have one custom fabricated. You'll definitely want to contact a local welding shop.

  • Front and Rear Hitch Recommendations for a 2017 Ford Transit T250 Cutaway
    Hey Edward, thanks for reaching out! For a front hitch receiver, we have the EcoHitch # EH79CR, but we'll need to get you hooked up with a universal-style hitch for the back because there aren't any custom options that will work. The Draw-Tite # 41990-07 is a weld-on installation so you'll need a shop to help you out. If you don't have a shop, you already do business with in your area then I recommend checking out the linked installer locator so you can see who might be able to install...

  • Will EcoHitch Front Hitch EH79CR Fit 2025 Ford Transit T350 With Adaptive Cruise Control?
    Hello James, thanks for reaching out. Yes, the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver will indeed fit the 2025 Ford Transit T350 HD with the EcoBoost engine. The hitch itself can and likely will interfere with the adaptive cruise control sensor. Even with the plate holder removed, it still has the potential to interfere with the sensor. There is no workaround for this I'm afraid.

  • Availability Of Instructions For EcoHitch Front Hitch EH79CR
    Hello Steven, thanks for reaching out. The EcoHitch Front Hitch # EH79CR is the correct fit for the 2016 Ford Transit T350. I am sorry to say there is no online version of the instructions. They only exist as the paper instructions that come with the hitch. Even the EcoHitch website doesn't have anything. I can tell you the hitch will be a no-drill install. You will need to completely remove the front bumper during installation, and the bumper will need to be trimmed before being reinstalled....

  • Is there a Front Hitch for a AWD 2020 Ford Transit 350 HD Cargo Van?
    Yes, there is Kristen! To add a front hitch to your AWD 2020 Ford Transit 350 HD Cargo Van, I recommend the EcoHitch item # EH79CR. This custom fit front hitch has a 2" receiver and includes all hardware needed to complete the installation. The hitch uses preexisting holes in your Transit's frame so there's no drilling required. The EcoHitch item # EH79CR has a 10,000 lbs towing capacity if you're planning on moving a trailer, a 1,000 lbs vertical load limit for accessories like bike racks...
