Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver - Custom Fit - 2"
Needed a front hitch for a 2006 Ridgeline Honda truck. I found it on etrailer.com and a better price for same hitch on another online store. As I talked with the customer service agent, I was also offered a discount which was quite a surprise. Shipping was very fast. Had it installed on my truck so I could attach a mounting hitch and snow blade. I am extremely happy with this hitch and etrailer.com.
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.

Fits perfect and works just as I needed it to. I use it for my SnowSport plow set-up on a 2022 Gladiator Sport Max Tow. I’ve been using front receivers for this same plow for the last 24 years. It’s been used on 5 different trucks and this front receiver mount plow is the BEST. *** When installing on a Gladiator(possibly the Wrangler as well), the front plastic trim below the bumper needs to be cut for receiver clearance. I wanted a tight and “factory looking” install, so I took my time with a vibrating cutter and very sharp utility knife. After trying to put it back in place, the hole is not just square, it’s shaped more like. “T”. I suggest you make small adjustments/cuts as you go forward. It may take several times fitting and cutting to get it right and tight, but in the end it does look like it came that way from JEEP. On the Max Tow package, there is also a metal skid plate that does not get reinstalled. Unfortunately that piece is where the back of the plastic fascia mounts. I ended up securing it with some long heavy-duty zip-ties and it’s worked well for a year now. Just an FYI for those installing the same receiver on their same vehicle.
Product shipped and received on time. I'm very happy with the packaging. Hardware was included with instructions to install the hitches I purchased.

Dealing with etrailer.com was definitely easy. They very much so appreciate any and all business. Shipping was pretty quick and they kept me informed on my order status all the way through as well with follow up to make sure everything was satisfactory. I have a 2019 TRD Pro Tacoma, I opted to just replace my skid plate with a lighter one given the slight addition weight of the hitch. On top of the fact I didn’t want to have to cut such a pricey factory part. Everything installed easily and while I’ve never had much reason to use fish wires I can tell you in this situation it’s a lifesaver. If I recall some people had issues fitting a ratchet to the top nuts. I used my stubby bolt through ratchet set and worked pretty flawlessly. Got to say over all I have zero complaints, some people mentioned the loss of ground clearance and/or approach angle but it’s really not that intrusive. I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking to make their Tacoma a little more versatile. My main objective was to be able to use my Surf Mate hitch rod/cooler set up without it getting in the way of the tailgate. Everything works great!
Well engineered product. Less than 30 min to install on my 2022 TRD Off-road. No trimming at all on TRD Off Road model. It looks a little utilitarian up close, but not so much from a distance. My cycle jack worked perfectly for this task. BTW.. The fish wires are a stroke of genius.

Work great, was easy to install, instruction that it came with weren't great, but video online helped. Going to use it for a bike rack and Winch. There was some scratches on the hitch when I received it, I think you need to rethink you packaging, putting metal on metal and wrapping it Saran wrap just doesn't keep it from rubbing, I will have to touch it up. Thanks for the fast shipping.
My front hitch for my 2008 Tacoma got to me within 3 days very fast service. I installed it in 30 minutes and was able to put the front skid plate back on without doing any other changes to it. Very good product. I will be using it to put my rod rack on front of truck to use it at the outer banks of North Carolina for surf fishing this coming fall. Thanks for a very good hitch.

2022 TRD Pro fits snugly. To keep the OEM skid plate, you can remove the skid plate’s 2x front spacers and spacer washer locks. Removing this will allow you to fasten the front 2x M10 oem bolts. The 2x rear M10 bolts will need to be replaced with 2x smaller length M10 bolts that are at half the size of the oem bolts. My local hardware store had plenty of options.
This front hitch is a perfect fit for my 4Runner. It was easy to install.

Excellent website. Easy easy to find what you need for your truck year. Mine was a 2001 Tacoma. Had 6 bolt holes that were to line up perfectly but only 4 of mine did. They landed exactly where my original tow hooks were. The instructions that came with my front mount 2" reciever even showed the torque amounts. Quality quality material, welds and bolts. Took me about 20 minutes to do the job. Floor Jack put it right where I needed it. I did have to cut a little plastic valance tab to line everything up. I have an original NC frame. No rust here. No way to ream out a 9/16" hole to make the last two bolts line up. When I was done with the install I jacked up the whole front of my truck off the ground from the front reciever. Worked perfect. Strong. Very happy. Now to talk the wife into a "Badlands" winch. Hahahah
Ordered the front-trailer hitch receiver for my 2003 Toyota Tacoma, and it arrived in 2 days! My son and I wasnable to install it in 20 minutes. It came with the bolts, washers and nuts needed. Matched up perfectly as if it was a factory add-on.

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.
