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

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.
by: Timm05/09/2024
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.

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.
by: Ken05/30/2016
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.

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.

- Can I Attach A Bull Bar And A Front Hitch Receiver To My 2022 GMC Canyon At Same TimeA bull bar will provide with some protection if you were to hit a dear. Currently, we do not have a bull bar that is compatible with your 2022 GMC Canyon, but historically they use the same mounting holes. You will most likely have to choose between on or the other. Personally, I would go with a front mounted trailer hitch. You can do more with the hitch when compared to the bull bar. We do have a front hitch receiver that is compatible with your vehicle, the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch...

view full answer... - How to Mount a SnowBear Plow at the Front of a 2020 Chevy ColoradoIt looks like the old SnowBear mounting kits weren't made for Chevy Colorado pickups so for your 2020 model you'll either need to have a shop fabricate something for you or you'll need to install the Front 2" Hitch Receiver # C31074 and use a hitch-mounted plow like the 84" Wide x 22" Tall SnowBear Plow # SB324-081 which comes with an electric winch.
view full answer... - Does the Curt Front Mount Hitch for a 2022 GMC Canyon Change Ride HeightThe Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # C31074 which is a fit for a 2022 GMC Canyon won't change the ride height at all but it will change your ground clearance by a bit because you now have a receiver under the bumper that hangs down a bit lower than the skid plate. That said, I don't think is enough to really cause any issues. The weight of the front mount hitch is about 35 lbs.

view full answer... - Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver Fascia Trimming On a 2021 Chevrolet Colorado LTYou do not have to remove the front fascia on your 2021 Chevrolet Colorado LT to trim it when install the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # C31074. Not all fascia's will require trimming so be sure to test fit the receiver before trimming your fascia.

- Recommended Front Hitch for a 2022 Chevy Colorado It is definitely feasible to carry a mobility scooter on a front hitch. The Curt item # C31074 that is custom fit for your 2022 Chevy Colorado has a 500 lbs vertical load limit. You should definitely check with the manufacture of your scooter's carrier, as it may not be rated for use behind a travel trailer or even a front hitch. If you decide to go with a hitch on your Airstream you'll need to use a universal one like the Curt Adjustable Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C13701. This hitch...

I just looked through the installation instructions for both the Curt Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver item # C31074 and the Aries Bull Bar with Removable Skid Plate item # AAB35-4015 and the two are compatible together on your 2019 Chevrolet Colorado. The bull bar mounts at the end of the frame rails where the toe hooks attach and the front mount hitch receiver attaches to the bottom of the frame a few inches back and sits below the front trim.

Considering the weight of the plow will be out in front of the vehicle where it can apply more leverage to the suspension adding helper springs will prevent bottoming out and help keep the front suspension from wearing out prematurely. So with front mount receiver # 65071 or # C31074 installed and a plow attached we can...

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.
