The Draw-Tite Front Mount Trailer Hitch Receiver # 65071 would require a lot of modification to the front of your 2017 Chevrolet Colorado ZR2 to properly fit. With your ZR2 having the front skid plate unlike other models this would need to be removed. A better option would likely be to have a custom receiver fabricated so you can have the 2" Receiver # E17 higher up on your front end. You will want to visit a custom fabrication shop to work out all the details of having one fabricated.
