Question:

good morning I am trying to figure out which one of the front hitches I can use for my 2015 Jeep unlimited to be able to support a meyer home plow FHK31432 or similar for this winter? would a regular jeep dealer install the hitch for me? thanks for your help

From my research I found the FHK31432 plow you mentioned requires a front hitch with a 2 inch receiver opening and a minimum tongue capacity of 300 lbs and minimum tow capacity of 3,000 lbs. We have just what you are looking for.

The trim package on your Wrangler will determine which front hitch you would need. If you have a brake booster pump, and a standard bumper on your Wrangler and it is not the Limited Edition I recommend the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch, part # 65069. This has a tongue weight capacity of 500 lbs and a towing capacity of 5,000 lbs.

A third hitch we offer you can check out is the Curt Front Trailer Hitch, part # 31432. This hitch will not work with any optional bumpers, and has a tongue weight capacity of 350 lbs with a towing capacity of 3,500 lbs.

The installation of these hitches can require some trimming or removal of the underbody panel, and this can be done by a dealership or a local garage with no problem.
