Front Rec. Hitch & Motorcycle ?

Anyone add a front receiver hitch to their 03 2500 for carying a 300 pound dual purpose motorcycle?

I have a small truck camper and would love to carry a small bike up front for the camping trips. But i am concerned about placing too much weight up front and possibly blocking the cooling air flow.

Thanks

Ron W.

300lbs would not be any worry at all, There are front bumpers that weigh more with the winches, I had a front reciever on one of my early 1st gen dodges to put the boat in and out,as the truck had a large overhead on the back. I would suggest to look into one that could be fabricated to bolt on. Goodluck,,Rick
