Question:
I have a 2018 2500hd and want to mount a front receiver. I dont like the low ground clearance that the under air dam mounts require. Is there a bull bar that includes receiver or a winch plate that a receiver could be mounted to? Thanks

I do have a solution for you, but unfortunately there are no bull bar/grille guard options out there that also utilize a front mount hitch for your 2018 Chevrolet Silverado 2500.
I believe that you were looking at the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31071 which has a drop so that the receiver sits under the front fascia on your Silverado.
Draw-Tite actually offers a front mount receiver as well which does not reduce the ground clearance for your truck. To install the part # 65078 on your Silverado you will actually have to do some trimming to your fascia as you can see is demonstrated on a GMC in the attached picture.
I have attached the instructions for both front mount hitch options for you to check out.
