I have wanted a front hitch mount for a few reasons- the first is that I could put a removable step in it and have easier access to the engine bay (I have wee stubby, useless legs) without having to pay to have a bumper made (I figure you can pick up brand new hitches all day for $100 but bumpers typically start at $250 and go all the way up to $1200), and then the ease of maneuvering trailers and mounting winches... but my truck has extra coolers mounted up front (from what I can surmise, in addition to the AC condenser there is an oil cooler and a tranny cooler)- do you have these coolers up front? Do you have a problem with them getting airflow with the hitch mount?

In the latest Off Road magazine, a Bronco is featured with a vented hood, and the oil/trans coolers are mounted above the radiator directly under the vents in order to make sure the radiator gets airflow and keep them from rocks. It's a neat mod too, but not too practical in my case as it would require a lot of plumbing, new fluids, fabrication, and sheetmetal cutting.

 

thanks I appreciate it

 

Yes my truck is a f250 LD so it has the big 4r100 transmission(same as the superduty) and has big oil coolers up front. The front hitch doesn't impede airflow to the coolers and I didn't have to relocate them. The hitch is a great addition to any truck that get used as a truck!lol. So many possibilities!
As for the step I have used it a lot since building it and used it as a jacking spot in a few trucks! Here's another pic incase you would like to build your own.

 

Everything looks grate guys!
