Front mount hitch
I was looking into installing a front hitch for the X, but it looks like the one from Hidden Hitch requires the removal of the foglights. Are there any out there that don't require removing the factory foglights?

Removable Front Wench from WARN Ind.
Go to WARN.com or search for WARN wenchs. They have a front hitch system that might work. If not you could install the complete WARN front hitch and brush bar system. Then mount the stock fog lights on the brush bar.
I would like to get this system one day.

I think that looks like a sweet setup. It looks expensive though...have you seen any prices for the grill guard, brush guard, front receiver, etc? I'll probably have to sell a kidney to get everything I'd want!! :-)

WARN front hitch
Funny Pic of Beaker. It is probably a high quality system, which means it will cost more. Best bet is to shop around on the internet for the best price. But you might get WARN to send you some info showing how the installation will effect the fog light location.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com

Curt Mfg makes a Front mount hitch that appears that you do not have to relocate the OEM fogs. It also appears to be well made

Hmm..that looks just about perfect. Thanks for the info Deaver... I have emailed Curt Mfg. to confirm if it is installed with or without the factory foglights. Will let everyone know when I hear back from them.

At this time we do not have available that could change in 05.
Thanks for your email.

Original Question...
I was wondering if you have a front mount hitch for a 2004 Ford Excursion. If so, does it require the removal of the factory fog lights? Do you have a set of installation instructions you could email or send me? Thanks so much!
