what happens when you want to have one in the center. for a winch, thats not bad. only 350 tongue weight. but 9000# line pull. not bad. i would prefer 1 hitch with the receiver in the middle

Putnam also makes a hich for the front. It supposedly does not require removal of the lights, but it comes out under the skirt, in a rather low position.
Another alternative is This company, https://bodiaknet.powweb.com/store/catalog/
They offer a center hitch that dooes not require removal of the fog lights, and it mounts onto the current tow hooks. 9000lb pull, 500 lb hitch weight.

I couldn't get that link to work. The one below should work.
It looks like a slick deal. I wonder about tongue weight capacity?
If it is rated Class III it should withstand at least 500 lbs, right?
