Front Mounted Receiver Option for 1990 Motorhome on Ford F-53 Chassis
Question:
I want to put a 2x2” reciever for dual ebike rack on the front. Bike weighs 60 lbs each. What hitch will bolt on?

Helpful Expert Reply:
Unfortunately, we don't offer a front mount receiver for the Ford F-53 chassis. Your best bet would be to use the rear hitch, if possible. If you're flat towing a vehicle, you can use a dual hitch adapter like # RM-077-6 which has a 400 lb tongue weight capacity, but be aware that the adapter is NOT designed for towing a trailer, only for flat towing a vehicle which doesn't apply any tongue load to the hitch.
If that wouldn't work for you, your best bet would be to check into having a front mounted receiver fabricated.
