is that a Curt hitch? i didnt think it would work with a sport bumper.

 

There are actually two pics of a silver push bar on the silver Ram. That is not the one I'm talking about. The pic is further below in my list of a non-sport bumper with the hitch. It's a "Hidden Hitch" brand and I believe I got it from Summit or JCWhitney at the time.

As far as the silver Ram is concerned... that's my dads sport truck and he does have a front receiver added as well. I forget what he had to do to get one to work with the sport bumper. If you are interested in that, let me know.

 

What's a DSS and a PCS?

 

DSS and PSC are identical front steering stabilizer braces. They help keep the steering box from flexing.

 

Ah, I see, thanks. My rigs are two-wheelers, don't have that issue. . .

 

I think 2WD and 4WD both benefit from this brace. It just stiffens the frame and ties it together and adds an extra turn brace for the steering shaft....

 

I have had a Curt front hitch on my truck for three years now and I'm very happy with it. Biggest test it's had was last spring when I got my truck and gooseneck trailer stuck on a dirt hill grossing around 32,000lbs. We tried pulling it the rest of the way up the hill with a 20,000lb 4wd tractor and it wouldn't budge it until we got some more weight on the tractor. I fully expected the front hitch on my truck to be bowed out after that hard of a pull but it's in perfect shape still and it was more pull on the hitch than the truck could ever produce.
