Easily attach a variety of accessories to the front of your vehicle with this corrosion-resistant trailer hitch receiver. Perfect for winches, spare tire carriers and more.Took about 20mins to install. I think it will serve great purposes with a new winch hitch attachment and when I'm not using it I will install a step for easy engine access
Fantastic Hitch. Tucked in so well people dont see it until I tell them it is there. I have used it to push my trailer into tight spots in the woods, carry two coolers using a hitch carrier and with my Yakima Bed Extender extended all the way in the front to carry the long kayaks between the front hitch and the sport bar so I could still tow the trailer. The front hitch is a game changer for loading options
Solid and heavy duty as expected. Instructions need to be improved. Pics blacked out from being copied to many times. I had to grind down the edge of front mounting tabs to get it bolted to the cross bar.
Great product and heavy duty construction. I have the GM metal front skid plate under my truck and the skid plate will not work with the front hitch without some modifications and time spent with the angle grinder. This is not etrailer's fault. Aftermarket product paired with an aftermarket product. I did get the skid plate mounted with the front hitch for an awesome combination of usefulness and protection. The only thing that I do not like is that the front of the hitch mounts to a crossbar under the radiator that appears very flimsy. Just be cautious about how much weight you apply to the hitch. Again, this isn't etrailer's fault. This is the same mounting location as all aftermarket front hitches. I feel sure that the hitch will serve it's intended use as a winch cradle mount. I will recommend a hitch receiver skid plate. I don't have one yet and I can see that I'll be dragging the hitch until I get my lift kit installed.
The hitch was pretty easy to install and seems like it should work fine for the plow I purchased.
Very straight forward and easy installation, as per instructions, if you have a buddy to help, it would have been a little faster. Removing the plastic skid plate attachment was definitely required as the forward bolt heads prevent the proper alignment of the receiver mounting holes. After installation I slid the plastic skid plate back into place,the entire front edge is held in place by the new installation and only the back two bolts were required to hold it securely. I have ordered several items over the years and they are always perfect fits and as easy installation as you could want for us do it ourselfers DIO's. I made a custom canoe tie down, the boat is shorter than my truck, and I didn't want the tie downs going across the hood.
This was very easy to install. I made a template from cardboard To mark the area to cut on on the plastic scoop. I simply cut the 3 by 3.5 inch area as recommended in the instructions. I used a Dremel tool and it cut very easily. I would recommend you get an extra set of hands to hold the hitch in place while installing the bolts. I also used the Dremel tool to cut down the skid plate. I cut it down by .5 inches per the directions. Make sure when reinstalling the skid plate you get the front in between the hitch and truck frame. This took a little playing to get this in place but once complete it fit very tight without the front bolts. Instructions were very good and completed job in under an hour.
It didn’t fit my 2016 Chevy Colorado. I had to do major adjustments

Easy solo install, works great.
Fits perfect. hardly tell that it's there. Works great for moving the boat.

perfect
Fit perfect, easy install, love it for my surf rod rack!
Due to weather conditions of rain and low clearance under my GMC Canyon, I had our local repair shop install the receiver. Not really easy unless using a lift. Fit perfectly and not really noticeable.
Plan to use to move my camper when parking in my driveway.
Put the front hitch on my 2016 Colorado for my snow sport snow plow and it fit perfect. I have bought 4 of these over the years for different vehicles and I highly recommend it.
Very happy with this product and your service. Not my first purchase from etrailer, and it was my previous experience that brought me back again. Arrived quickly and in perfect shape. Fit perfectly and performs the same. I'll be back!
Received hitch very quickly and exactly what I needed.
Over the years I have purchased many products from etrailer and I've never been disappointed. The products are top-notch, the delivery time is very quick and when I have called with questions customer service is extremely helpful and knowledgeable.

That is odd Bruce, there are other reviews on this product that state this fits on their 2016 Chevy Colorado. I think you may have gotten a flexed hitch. This is common and it isnt bad. It just happens due to the nature of shipping and the steel used.
