Hi Jimk, That might work, Would like to carry either a bike rack or a carrier platform for firewood, tools grill etc.

any idea how much $$$ a custom Front Hitch would cost? Do you like me to call you or PM me direct ...

Not really in a rush ....Like to get it a some point when going full time GMC

Dutch,
Never weld on the frame as you never know when you need it removed for any
reason.
If your not in a big hurry, we can fab you a one that you can attach
securely with bolts.
