We have front mount trailer hitches available for the 2003 Dodge Durango as long as it is a 4WD model. At this time there are no front mount hitches available for the 2WD models.

If you have a 4WD model, then I recommend installing the Curt Front Mount Hitch, # 31080. This has the highest vertical pull rating of our front mount hitches and it does not require any bumper modifications. The receiver will sit just below the front bumper fascia. I have attached the installation instructions for you to check out.

Once you have the front hitch installed, the SnowBear Personal Snowplow for 2 Inch Hitches # SB324-080, will fit in the 2 inch receiver.
