Expert Reply:
In order to mount a winch to the front of your 2013 Ford E350, I recommend using a front mounted hitch receiver, hitch receiver winch plate, and electric winch as this is the only viable option I see without extensive modifications to the vehicle.
For a front mount hitch receiver, I recommend using the Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver part # 65053. The next thing you will need in order to mount an electric winch to the front of your vehicle is a winch mounting plate such as the Bulldog Winch Hitch Mounted Winch Mounting Plate with Handles part # BDW20011. This mount features a standard 10" x 4-1/2" bolt pattern.
You will also need an electric winch compatible with the mounting, if you do not already have one, such as the Bulldog Winch Trailer Winch part # BDW15017. I have attached a list of all our electric winches for your review.
