2000 F250 front mount hitch
Hey guys,
I've spent the last few hours reading threads on front mounted hitches for my truck. I have a 2000 (build date 5/00) F250 SD 4x. I do not have the blocker beam. I do have and want to retain my factory driving lights.
Apparently, the only thing out there is this. But, it wipes out my lights and the receiver is too high. I want something where the receiver is below the bumper.
I've heard of Bodiak and Leed engineering but both of those companies don't seem to make a front hitch anymore. Any help?

what are you using it for ?
I built mine for inserting items like a step, hitch for maneuvering trailers, a slide in ladder rack extension for really long items like garage door panels, i wouldn't use mine to say tow the truck behind a vehicle but that wasn't my intention
you can see my step in my avatar?

I just want to insert a cargo carrier that I already own for a little extra storage room. The hitch wouldn't see much use or weight. But, my biggest problem is the year of my truck does not have the blocker beam. Most hitches require that to bolt up to. I think I'm stuck with the one that mounts beside the tow hooks, inside the bumper, which I don't like because of the height of it and the fact that it takes out the driving lights.
I guess I'm stuck unless I can find a shop that will weld something together for me custom. Anyone know of such a shop in the Santa Cruz, CA area?
TIA
