I'm looking to put a hitch on the front of my 1500 Sport. Is it possible with the bumper? Trimming required? Looking to do it to mount bikes or a dirtbike on a moto-tote and still have access to the tail gate.

Here you go front hitches for 13.

etrailer.com - 2013 Ram Pickup Dodge Front Hitch Products front reciever hitch

I am buying one for my 12 2500 that mounts in the horizontal opening where the tow hooks are mounted and can still keep my tow hooks.

With this type there is nothing hanging below the air dam,or affecting approach angle.

I have purchased from etrailer before good company to deal with.

I have a front hitch for a 1500, 2011 model (same part # for 2013).

I had it on my 2011 Sport, and didn't have to cut anything. The hitch barely contacted the bottom of the bumper, and slightly bent it upwards. Barely noticeable.

I don't have the 1500 anymore and would be willing to sell it cheap. If you want it, let me know. I can ship it. It went on the truck when I had 3000 miles, and I sold the truck with 14000 miles. So, it was not on the truck long.

PM me if interested. You can also find my pics on google, under username ShawnQ, or in photobucket. I loved the hitch, I just traded for a 2500 pickup and the hitches aren't interchangeable.
