Can I install this CURT Front Receiver Hitch 31367 in a Toyota FJ Cruiser 2014 with a front SmittyBilt bumper?

Hey Val, thanks for reaching out!
The Curt front mount trailer hitch # 31367 will not fit with a Smittybilt M1 front bumper on your FJ Cruiser.
Both the hitch and the M1 bumper use the same mounting locations on the frame rails, so the two components interfere with each other and cannot be installed together.
We don't carry a front receiver option currently that's confirmed to bolt up alongside that particular bumper.
How were you planning on using the front mount hitch?

This mounted perfectly on my 2014 FJ Trail Teams. Needed to remove the lower brush guard. Works great to maneuver pontoon boat in tight garage and driveway.
