Anyone know of a grille guard with a 2" receiver?
Hey guys, I have seen two, both on Chubbies though, grille guards with a 2" receiver in the front. I have saved the recent thread on the receiver hitch that was built, but I would like to know if anyone knows a manufacturer that puts a receiver on a grille guard. Etrailer has a front mounted hitch, but it mounts a little lower than I like. It has to have a hole cut in the air dam, not a problem, but still low for my liking. I want to use this set up but with the Thule Goal Post kayak rack. I think RanchHand used to make one, but cannot find it on their website. I know I could always have one put on one afterwards, but you compromise the powder coat by welding it on. Just wondering if you guys had any ideas.

You could call Browns Bumpers. Brown's Welding
I don't see a Ford model that has one on their website, but they've put them on Chevy/GMC grill guards in the past. See link below.

They do special orders. I had a legend series Bullnose made with no bar for a previous truck. It was just the pipe and skirts with the receiver. It was the same price as one with the regular one just had to wait for it. The only problem with asking for a receiver on a grill guard would be they may fell you or a later owner May way overload it. Worth a shot!
