Front hitch receivers

Post by Beastcabs10 »

I know I've been asking a lot of questions about the winch mounting but I just want to get the right one. What would be the cheapest front hitch receiver the cheapest one I can find is about 120. Is there a cheaper alternative? I'm on kind of a budget thanks!

That price seems pretty good. The only other option would to be get lucky and find a used one, or build it yourself.

$120 is a normal price. Not nearly as many options for the front as there is a rear hitch. A front hitch is nice for the fact you can remove the winch and not be exposed to the elements all the time. Flip side of this if you're buried already you might not be able to hook it up. That or better chance to hit it on something since it will stick out further using a front hitch and carrier.
