I am looking for a front hitch for my 2003 for explorer 4 door limited. I want to keep my factory tow hooks. Which front hitch mount would allow me to keep the factory tow hooks that would be an easy install? Thank you

Expert Reply:
For your 2003 Ford Explorer 4-door none of the front hitches we offer require the removal of tow hooks prior to installation. The Curt hitch part # 31540 has been confirmed as a fit and would work well for you. There will be some drilling for installation of this hitch but as far as most hitches go this will install pretty easily.
