Dodge Ram 1500 front receiver hitch
Technical documents
A CURT front trailer hitch allows you to use the front of your vehicle for a variety of towing applications. They can be used to mount a winch, snow plow, various towing accessories, and can even be used for certain trailer applications. When space is limited, a front trailer hitch is commonly used to accommodate a cargo carrier, freeing up space inside the vehicle for additional cargo and keeping the rear receiver available for towing a trailer. At the boat ramp, your trailer can be hooked up to the front receiver hitch, giving you better control of the trailer during launch. Other accessories that can be used with a front trailer hitch include the CURT winch mount, step pad, license plate holder, spare tire mount, skid shield, and tow hooks. All CURT front trailer hitches feature a useful receiver tube to accept a 2" x 2" shank, and they are commonly used on trucks, vans, and SUVs. This front hitch is rated for 5,000 lbs. GTW and 500 lbs. TW. It also has a straight-line pull rating of 9,000 lbs. It is designed to be a custom trailer hitch for certain years of the Dodge Ram 1500 (to verify your vehicle compatibility, see application info). It comes with all necessary hardware for a complete installation and is backed by a limited lifetime warranty.
