Looks good. Wher are you mounting it up front. High or low?

Here is mine....$75 with shipping from Ebay. Can mount the winch up front or in the rear!!!! Love the Reese hitch!!!! Bolted and welded in place!!! Super strong!!!

Hi-Lift jack carrier I had made for me for the front or rear 2 inch receiver:

I have it mounted right between the frame rails. I have a Body lift so the bumper sits up a little higher than the fram so it worked out perfect. I'll try getting pics of it on the truck tonight

that high lift bracket is sweet!

what weezl said x2 !!!
and i do like that front hitch you made. i have a front brush guard and not sure how well something like that would mount up really. would love to ditch the chrome front bumper for something more substantial with a hitch.

ps. if you decide to make a couple more of those front hitches, pm me with a price and shipping to zip 55720 !!!

You mention that your mount that you bought on Ebay was a reese hitch. Do you happen to know the part number?

Hey, Bro. I saw the box last month before I put it out in the recycle bin. I think it is part # 65024.
