Question:
I have a 2000 Jeep wrangler TJ, complete stock front bumper. I would like to add a front mount hitch, but want it to mount under the stock bumper. Can you tell me which one of your mounts will work for me. thanks

We've got what you're looking for. The Curt Front Mount Hitch Receiver, part # C31028 mounts to the undersides of the frame members at the front of your Jeep so that the receiver opening is located under the front bumper, as you can see in the photo I've provided.
If you need the front receiver to provide an attachment point for something fairly heavy like a snow plow, I'd also recommend the Timbren # TJFTJ springs which fit 4x4 models only. The Timbrens prevent the front end from sagging under the weight of a plow. The springs will only come into play and affect the ride of your Jeep when the front end is under load. Otherwise, the Jeep will ride normally.
If you click the provided link, you can see the installation instructions for the hitch I've recommended.
