Curt Front Hitch for 2012 4Runner

[ron in sc]

Does anyone use a Curt Front Hitch for the 2012 4Runner to move boats, cars, trailers around on their property. I've looked into those electric pullers and they will not work because I will be pulling over #47 or #57 granite thus no traction.

I use one quite often to move trailers around a buddies ranch, and for getting my trailer out of hairy situations camping off the grid. I have been really happy with it.

Thanks for reply.

How long of a draw bar to you need to use?

I have a cheap Harbor Freight extension, I believe it is 18". Keep in mind that an extension decreases your allowable tongue weight, but at that distance I have not really worried much about it.

I bought the Curt 7" extender as all I wanted was my receiver hitch winch to clear the front bumper. I did not buy it from here, just an example FYI.
