Will The EcoHitch Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH37FR Fit With A Ranch Hand Brush Guard
Updated 11/17/2025 | Published 12/05/2024
Question:
Have 2019 ram 3500 diesel. Have a brush guard made by ranch hand. The problem is does bottom bar have enough clearance. Is it possible to get a side view drawing showing measurements of the cross bar. Need to know distance from bottom of receiver to bottom of bumper. Thank you

Hey Steven,
The trim can vary between different sub models so I can't give you an exact measurement without actually measuring your specific model. If you measure down from the front tow hook bolt hole in the mounting brackets of the EcoHitch Hidden Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # EH37FR to the bottom of the receiver tube would be 10". You can find this spot on your frame rails and measure down to see if it would interfere with your brush guard.
I've also attached Ryan's installation video below where you can see where the tube comes out in the bumper and you can see the mounting points in the frame that I was referencing.

Hey Steven, how did your measurements turn out with the EcoHitch front hitch and your Ranch Hand brush guard? It’d be great to know if the 10-inch drop from the tow hook bolt hole gave you enough clearance. Your update could make it easier for others checking fit on similar setups.
