About a year ago I bought a reciever for ten bucks at a garage sale. I have been planning to cut it up and mount it on the front of my truck, but I had to move the bumper up and out to clear the latest wheels and tires.
After lots of modifications to the stock mounting hardware and trimming a little bit of the bumper, I finally got it mounted. I put a folding license plate bracket from a 71 Impala over it so it's completely hidden when it's not in use.
I am pretty happy with the finished result. I didn't spend much money (less than 20 bucks actually) and although I haven't used it yet, I have used a front hitch on another rig to sneak a trailer into a tight spot.
