I put a Curt Class 1 hitch on the Front of my 2004 Chevy Silverado 1500 shortbed 4.3 manual. I'm wanting to put a Curt folding cargo carrier on it. Its 60 by 24. To haul camping gear. But the idea seems a bit odd. Id hate to see it break and drop and run it over. The hitch and carrier both hold 500 lbs. But I'm gonna put light bulky crap on it. The two front bolts are the tow hook bolts and the back are 1/2 inch . Torqued to over 75 lbs. The hitch is really nice. I'm considering a front weld. Should I just leave it and use it.
Anyone run front hitches. And break one.
