2004 GMC HD2500 Front Receiver Hitch

[chelt75]

I am wanting to put a front receiver hitch on my truck ,so I can mount a winch. I would really like to see some pictures and what people think about different brands. I have been looking and some advertisements state that there will be a deformation in my air dam? Please help

I doubt if you will get on on there without a little cutting. There was a day when a truck was a truck and they had simple real metal bumbers in front. Those days are long gone. My 2000 K3500 did not require any cutting to put a snowplow on but it is the old "Classic" body style with a metal bumber and no plastic under trim. Since I need a true no no nonsense work truck I opted for it, the last of the "Classics" instead of a Silverado. I have not regretted it.
