Does anyone know where I can purchase a 2" front receiver hitch for a 1996 F250 4x4, auto, 460? I called Valley, Hidden Hitch and no one seems to have one.

 

I don't think that I have ever heard of a "front" receiver hitch. Can you tell me what it does? I would think that you maybe can rig up a regular hitch to do your chores...

I use to have one on my 94 F150. Had to have it fabricated at the local RV shop. Don't know where you are located, if you where in my area I could recommend something. Mine attached to the frame in the front and I had to cut notches in the plastic below the bumper or leave it off.

Kept it when I sold my 94, but doesn't fit the 99 SD, oh well. Get out the welder.

A lot of places that handle boats also will build one. It works great to park trailers, etc. or hold heavier loads up front.

Warn and ramsey winch make front mount receivers for Ford F series, 130-160$.

 

Try the JC Whitney catalog... I've seen them in there for the past 6 months now.
