Front Mount Hitch
I am trying to figure out if anyone makes a front mount hitch that will bolt up to a 2nd gen. Does anyone out there know where I could find one??

Might require some modification to your stock bumper.

Probably not exactly what you are looking for, or in the price range, but whatever front bumper I have has a hitch receiver in the front. I'll look tomorrow to see if there is a brand name on it. It was already on when I got the truck.

Jebus. Get some more bolts in that bumper before you plan on doing any winching.

If he doesn't want that bumper let me know what kinda deal you can do. It should fit on an 89' right? I know the front ends were very close to each other.

No, the bumper was built around it. And Hyde is right, don't even think about winching until you've got six bolts in there instead of two. Better yet, pull the bumper and plate the crossmember first.

Hmmm that warn receiver looks decent enough for maybe a front recovery point. I would maybe be able to use that as a starting point for a small bumper reinforcement since I'm not going with a permanent winch. Probably just going to use a winch cradle, since adding receivers into sliders is what I want to do for the sides as well.
