Expert Reply:

Hey Pat. The Draw-Tite Front Hitch item # 65076 is not going to be compatible with a Westin Grille Guard like item # 57-3905. They install in the same locations on your 2022 Ford F-250.

Same with the Ecohitch item # 306-X7904 and Curt item # C31078. The bottom support brackets on the Westin Grille Guards like item # 57-3905 are in the way.

Do you already have a brush guard?

@PatM Ok, yeah I don't have a solution for you as far as adding a front mount hitch then. We don't carry them but there are some vendors out there who have front mount hitches built into grille guards. They're pretty impressive. If you absolutely need a front mount hitch this would be my suggestion.
